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!!

Buzz, Jason, et al, One possibility would be to dedicate the owner-driver trophy to Carl. Call it the Carl Schumacher Owner-Driver Trophy and make it more comparable in size and quality to the Class Championship Trophy which has tended to be dominated by sailmaker drivers. If I recall correctly Carl donated the painting which has served as the owner-driver trophy for 10 years or so and is running out of space on the picture frame for award plaques. Just a thought. I would be happy to donate toward whatever trophy idea the class comes up with.
