Delta Ditch Run at Stockton Sailing Club/Richmond Yacht Club | June 2 |

Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

:: Hi Fred-
:: Give Buzz Ballenger a call at Ballenger Spars, he
:: manufactures the derlin bearings, and may even have some
:: in stock. A year or so ago I replaced the top and bottom
:: bearings on my boat and I think it was around 100-150
:: including shipping. Buzz is the best bet.

:: :: Greetings from S. Cal,
:: ::
:: :: Infinity and Beyond is still making its way around the
:: :: marks down in Dana Point, but would like to see a little
:: :: more air than the normal 3-5 knots we have down here.
:: ::
:: :: My question relates to rudder bearings. Quite a few
:: :: years ago there was a project to produce new delrin (?)
:: :: rudder bearings for the E27. As Infinity's rudder
:: :: bearings are showing there age, I was wondering if
:: :: anyone knows if a source for new bearings has been
:: :: located.
:: ::
:: :: I would appreciate a response by email if possible, I
:: :: will be checking back here occasionally.
:: ::
:: :: Have a great season in 2008
