Hi John,
Let us know if you ever have buoy races. We now have 9 Waves here in the Keys racing weekday series and weekend series. Got about 25 races in so far this fall.
But, they wouldn't be much fun for distance races. And the Taipan hates Biscayne Bay and all the kelp. Single-handing with a bad rudder system and daggerboards with all the weed there reminds me of a one-armed paperhanger, or a one-legged *ss-kicker. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
