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!!

Well, my boat is in winter storage in a warehouse. If you are considering ordering an Express 27, I'll take some pictures and send them to you. Where do you live? I would advise you to try to get to where there is an actual E27 and take a look at it and go for a sail. If you do I'm sure you will like the boat. There is no better sailing 27 foot boat available, new or used. You can email me at [email protected] or phone me at 248-646-0563. When I get a chance I'll take some pictures. The boat has a very nice, well-designed interior with four comfortable bunks, a good chart table and a minimal galley area. Also, very comfortable seating for 4. It has kneeling headroom.
