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: ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT is FOR SALE
Info: (11573 views) Posted: Saturday 7-9-05 05:01:28 AM
Seems a bit harsh. Let's say it's the boat that tried mods the class decided were not good for the health of the class.

Question...what systems would need to be changed back to 'stock' for this boat to be welcomed back to the fleet...just the winch system, or are there others?

Being from the Great Lakes, I was a bit outside the flow of information. Not interested in the emotion, just the details.
