| 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)" |

US prices are really steep, but I found much better prices out of the UK, as well as good service. I ordered from www.seamarknunn.co.uk. Prices are about 2/3rds US prices, though shipping is a bit more expensive.
BTW, I love my TackTicks. The SpeedMaster works with the transducers from the flaky KVH instruments the boat came with, and I seriously abused the same RaceMaster in 3 Worrell 1000s and it showed no wear at all. And now I don't need to carry a battery during day-time races. All-in-all I removed 40lbs of electronics off my boat by going to the TackTicks.
