| Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs 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!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

>>I am finally getting around to replacing the single, long stock jib tracks with shorter sections fore and aft for the jib and genoa but have questions about length and precise placement of the shorter tracks. Does anyone have any drawings, measurements, etc. that I could use to guide the placement of new, shorter jib tracks? Also, any thoughts on using jib cars that can be adjusted under load? That would seem to be overkill to me, given the small size of the headsails, but I would like to know whether anyone has used them with success. Thanks in advance.
