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!!

Sutter, I had the oppertunity to visit Davie Norris Boatbuilders this week, and spent a couple hours at the plant. Davie is ready to go with production, but needs one more firm order before he will commit to shipping the e-27 molds from Chico to Christchurch. Additionally, he's currently building a Stella 53 for the Miami Boat Show in Feb, but has the floor space and manpower to probably have two large boats in production along with the Express 27. You'll be pleased to know that he has a BIG portrait of your fater in the plant, along with several pictures of boats Carl design.

:: :: Also: any new boats ordered yet?
::
:: Two people have expressed "strong" interest, to the
:: point of discussing timelines and options with the
:: builder. However, he's still looking for one or two more
:: orders before beginning construction. If you'd like more
:: information or have any questions, feel free to contact
:: me.
