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!!

::
:: While the fleet membership was compelled to make certain

:: 27 Season

:: Championship in full accordance with Express 27 Class
:: Rules. You should all

:: be very proud of this achievement, you have won in a
:: very competitive fleet.
::
:: The changes to the class rules were not undertaken
:: lightly, and were not

:: intended to cast any doubt on this acheivement. You won
:: fairly and within

:: the rules. The fleet officers are sorry for any distress
:: or hurt this

:: matter has caused for "Attitude Adjustment" and her
:: talented crew. On

:: behalf of the Fleet Officers, let me offer you our
:: sincere apology.
