Larry-

Congrats on all the fun you're having on "Harvey". I am thrilled that the boat has such a good home and "family".

Libra raced over 40 races in 2013 and went out non-racing many times as well. I don't know if we beat your record of 60, but obviously both boats have owners that love "Expressin'". Regardless of why the boat is sailed, it is a dream of a boat to sail on.

Fair winds and blue skies!

:: @Larry: you make a good point about how many times you
