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!!

Okay, the Granular Details on this Kite. Like I said its new. And its the class shape. A .7x QUANTUM airex triraidal rocked multi panel. All white with distinctive yellow clew patches for Desperado's racing inventory distinguished by sail weights and conditions; .6 green, .7 all purpose blue (the poly), .7x yellow which is this Quantum and the red clewed 1.5 oz. Crew will know not to attach the halyard to either one of the clews. Except for the .6 green all are new. .7x airex Quantum is a a full girth maximum projected area sail. It is distinguished from Quantum class kite construction by a broad seem . . . I thinnk its 1". Ordered for 140 degree or greater broad reach/running in ocean at 20 + true. You won't be disappointed at over $800 off a new sail of this specification. Definitely a three year SF Bay series life on this sail.
