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: 3 Day Around Oahu Race
Info: (18131 views) Posted: Saturday 6-8-02 12:08:00 AM
Team Lono rallied on Memorial Day weekend. On Friday we sailed from Maui to Oahu to compete in the annual J D Johnson "Three Day Around" Oahu race (I think it was my 27 th. year). In three days we circunavigate Oahu with "over nights" at Kanehoe Yacht Club and the new Ko O'lina marina on the leeward coast.The third day we finish back at The Ala Wai yacht harbor where we began. It was a great weekend and in the end we won the series "overall". The Express 27 just keeps'em guessing! We sailed with adjusted ratings of 220 and 215 and still prevailed. Guess I can't bitch about my 126 and 135 ratings here in Hawaii.
