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!!

My #40 has a bucket too. A typical bucket from home depot fills the hole nicely.

:: #48 has the same hole in the port "table." It fits any
:: standard bucket. My favorite is a standard cheap plastic
:: one you can get at grocery stores. You can also buy the
:: black rubber bucket with metal handle at West Marine for
:: ~$30.

:: :: Desperado #8 came with no sink, bucket, but a complete
:: :: brunzel mahogony table top with wooden lid over sandwich
:: :: area (now stored in the garage). 5 gallon paint bucket
:: :: stowed anywhere does just fine.

:: :: :: yeah they must have tried saving some $ on the last few
:: :: :: hulls. 111 had a black plastic bucket and a hole cut in

:: :: :: :: Bucket ??? I have a stanless rectangle sink looks
:: :: :: :: orginal ... I think

:: :: :: :: :: Does anyone know what kind of bucket was used for the
:: :: :: :: :: sink? Hull 111 had (my daughter dumped it in the river
:: :: :: :: :: and it doesn't float for long) a black bucket with a
:: :: :: :: :: steel handle. If anyone knows where I can pick up a new
:: :: :: :: :: one that would be great? Short of that if someone can
:: :: :: :: :: take a look at their bucket and give me some info on it
:: :: :: :: :: that would be a great start. Thanks in advance.
