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!!

For anyone thinking about doing the Long Beach races (the North Sails Race is the weekend after the Long Beach Race), I'll second Jason's comments. I've done both regattas for the past 2 years and we've had a lot of fun. Even if you are not doing the Coastal Cup, trailering the boat down there is very easy, about a 6 hour drive down Route 5. Between regattas you can even keep your boat on the trailer with the mast up. If anyone has any questions about the costs or logistics, just email me.

Cheers

Dan

>>Who is planning (or thinking about) doing the Coastal Cup? Think about doing the Long Beach Race Week the following weekend as well. 3 Boats stayed down for it last year and we had a blast, even though the B25s kicked our butt because of the rating game.>>

>>I would prefer to get 5 or 6 boats down there this year so we can sail one-design. Any takers on this? No foul weather gear!!! Lots of sun!!!! LOTS of partying!!!>>
