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: Setting up an Express for Racing

I just recently purchased Hull#87 Monster Express and the boat will be located in the Gorge - Hood River OR.

It's close to stock and I know that I'm looking at making some key "go fast" changes - Backstay adjustment point, adjustable Jib Leads are two that will be my first upgrades.

Any insight/pictures would be great. Most sailing here in the gorge will be with the #3.

I'd like to do it close to right the first time!

Once dialed, I look forward to travelling to some of the key races.
