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)" |

Frank Poupore's Ruby My Dear #25 and Scott Sorbie's Piper #111 from Detroit and Bill Zehner's Navigator #44 from Florida are racing in the "Level" 123 class in the St Petersburg NOOD Feb 14-16. The "level" class also includes 3 Tripp 26s, one Abbott 33, one J30 and a brand new Elliott770 from Oklahoma where the boat carries a PHRF rating of 111. Good luck to Frank and Scott and Bill! The two Detroit boats are using their masthead spinnakers in an effort to level the playing field. Zehner may also be carrying a bigger kite. Last I heard he was looking into getting one.
