Subject: Xena Needs Crew...

Prospective Crew --

Xena, #68 has not yet filled out her crew roster for the rest of the season. If you have an interest, please contact me and lets discuss our mutual expectations. I will then send you our schedule to see what we can work out.

Ideally, we would like to put together a core team that can make most of the races. Skills we are looking for include: Bow, good kite trimmer, general tactical smarts. I will consider relative novices, but only if they are willing to make a long term commitment.

Xena features gourmet lunches and only the best beer, in fact I have no doubt that we have the best beer and lunches in the fleet :-). And we usually don't do too badly in the races... even carrying around all that beer and food.

Mark Lowry,

-Xena... and e27 fleet poobah
-510.909.0859 (cell, but not during business hours)
-925.422.6160 (office...only way to get me reliably during the day)
