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!!

Subject: Double Damned 2011 - Hood River OR
Info: (24024 views) Posted: Thursday 6-16-11 03:11:01 PM
The 2011 "Double Damned" Downwind Race will be held August 6th in the Columbia River Gorge. It's a 42 mile Downwinder/Upriver from Cascade Locks Oregon to The Dalles Oregon. It's the Gorge so it's usually Windy ( Record is 3:53 - Moore 24 - Morgan Larson in 2009 )

We would love to have any and all Express' racing. Both Hood River Yacht Club Express' will be racing ( My "Monster Express" #87 and the newly relocated Bessie Jay now known as "Kitchen Remodel") and hope to have a couple more.

There should be a strong fleet this year with the Moore 24 Nationals the week before in Cascade Locks.
