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!!

Sry Ralph I would love to use my boat this year (or let someone else race it) but I am not sure if the work being done to it will be done in time. Work was supposed to be done a month and a half ago and as you can see its not in its slip.

::
:: Nine Express 27s have signed up for the Detroit NOOD.
:: Who'll make it 10?

:: The entries include three-time DRYA junior sailor of the
:: year, Chris VanTol, sailing #110 with a crew of top
:: young sailors including Perrin Fortune who has logged
:: many miles racing on his dad's E27 Air Force. Paul,
:: Sarah and possibly Eric Deeds are coming from the West
:: Coast to race Lorax #107. They have been hard to beat in
:: recent Detroit NOOD events. Muskegon's Bob Harvey will
:: be back for his fourth Detroit NOOD in #93 Trim. Trim
:: took third last year. Also among the favorites is
:: Detroit fleet champion Harald Kolter's Das Boot, second
:: place finisher in 2003.
