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!!

Hit send too soon - still not sure who won TBF but we had a great day on the water. Pretty sure we won the counterclockwise group but doubt that was good enough for a E27 class win. We never stopped moving which was a first for me in this event.

Great to see such a big turnout for the fleet. Best day on the water so far this year.

Nick - out.
