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!!

You can have anything you want EXCEPT you can't use calculations from multiple sources so things like Tru wind direction, true wind speed, and current drift and set are not allowed for OD racing. If you sail alot of distance or offshore you may have the capabilities on your boat and it is honor system to not use them during OD class events. Cheers, Will
