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!!

There is a spot that you can get to through the small hatch in the bow...If I remember right it is indented a small amount...Normally by where the speedo sensor... Clean the paint out of the way,Then just get some adhesive and completly coat the transducer and press onto the spot..or you can google terry alsberg..and it comes up to his new business..ask him

:: Would prefer not to drill any new holes. Is there
:: anyplace on the bottom that is not cored where an in the
:: hull transducer might work?

:: Thanks
