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!!

Jason- I'm up in Maine and have never and may never see another E 27 so am always interested in any and all technical articles- also PHRF maximizing, optimal jib sheet lead systems

:: topic, I thought I would post something seeking
:: everyone's valuable input. I need to know what you would
:: like to see in upcoming newsletter issues.
::
:: Here are a few topics that I thought might be of
:: interest to everyone:

:: 3) Boat preparation for the upcoming season.

:: 4) New adjustable backstay systems.

:: 5) How to get the most out of your racing sails.

:: 6) ????
::
:: So let me know if any of these topics appeal to you, or
:: if there is something else you would like to see
:: covered. Also, please send me some pictures of you and
:: your crew out sailing. Or designate one of your crew to
