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: Swamp Donkey under contract
Info: (15996 views) Posted: Tuesday 5-3-05 09:27:51 AM
A prospective buyer of the Swamp Donkey has put a deposit down and is closing at the end of the May. He will likely keep the boat at Encinal to race it in the fleet. If the deal falls through, I will let you know.

:: I'm interesed, but from the dreaded "out of town"

:: What if I give visiting rights? I'll come down once a
:: year and let your fleet crush me in a race!!
::
:: Can I buy half of the boat and bring it to Portland?
::
:: :: The prospective purchaser of the Donkey backed out. If
:: :: you are interested, let me know. I have had a number of
:: :: out of town enquiries and want to hold out for a local
:: :: buyer before shipping out of the area. Please have any
:: :: prospective Bay Area owners call me. The boat is ready
:: :: to race and go fast. There is potential to keep one of
:: :: the existing partners and only buy half the boat if that
:: :: is more interesting. Thanks. Scott 415-250-4353
