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!!

Hi Everyone,

I could be in as well but my understanding is that it is really something that needs to be custom done to get a really tight fit. Has anyone used a generic bearing like the one Buzz makes?

Also, don't get me wrong I know Buzz is an icon in the Express fleet, I have just heard some other information and thought I should bring it up. Curious to hear what others have to say.
