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: Moore Schedule if that makes things easier

Hi Everyone:

Here's the M24 fleet schedule . . . if that makes things any easier

2008 Roadmaster Schedule

January 26 Three Bridge Fiasco SSS SF Bay March 1-2 Spring Keel StFYC City Front April 12-13 Resin Regatta SFYC Berkeley Circle May 3-4 Cruz Regatta SCYC Santa Cruz June 7 Delta Dicth Run RYC/SSC SF Bay June 21-22 Commodores Cup MHRA Huntington Lake July 20 - 25 PCC's at Whidbey Island Race Week Whidbey Island September 5-7 Nationals at Richmond Yacht Club South Hampton October 25 Great Pumpkin RYC South Hampton

And I would like to add . . . even though the M24 fleet has also adpoted a weight limit (#800?). . . it neither discriminates between women, light weights or average weight American males.

I believe the M24 fleet percent crew of boat weight is at least 10% more than inour fleet. Maybe one of you rocket scientists should figure out what the % difference is between the two; based on allowed crew and all up boat wieght; for percetnage difference between the two.

Cheers.

:: Hi Fleet Officers:
::
:: Can you please post how the race votes split out. M24's
:: have already posted their series . . . and between the
:: two . . . E27s is what counts for 2008 planning and
:: coordination . . . against this other fleets series.

:: Perhaps the use of dialogue boxes on the site (
:: previously provided as an example) tooferret out the
:: pros and cons of the race vote for final series
:: selection, will lift some of the burden from fleet
:: Officers having to make choices lacking final fleet
:: member consideration?
::
:: I still think the dialogue box method is best for
:: discussing and narrowing in and then choosing the race
:: choices. But without the vote framework to define the
:: foundation . . . it seems were stuck in Limbo here.

:: Thank you.
