That can get us in some big trouble with th coast guard. Thanks to Charles for stepping up and clearing himself with race committee.

I think we can spell out the incidents for our brethren regarding next years event. You will now be part of the crew that puts together the info pack for the Formula 18s next year.

According to some of the mono's we had 4 F-18's go into the channel 2 were identified and one other has withdrawn his finish. I think the other 2 may be Mark and Phil. I'm not sure. Those guys got a good lead on me by then. Thanks to Mike for bringing Chris and thanks to all who made this a great event. I'll be back .

Another post like that and I'm telling everyone to go to you for warranty issues. Unless it's a booze cruise, I'm done with monohulls. The most exciting thing that happened for me on a monohull that day was running aground, while everyone else on board peed their pants with excitement when the on-board GPS reported a top speed of 11.2 mph for the day. At the Kick Off Regatta in 30 knot winds I considered it fortunate to get down to that speed. On the other hand, considering the wind the previous day at the finish line in Stockton at 1:00 PM was 0 mph it was good we had the good wind we did on race day. I'll do the DDR again, but next time on my retro 18SX.

It'll be nice to have someone to sail with at the back of the pack. Last edited by hobie18rich; 06/10/09 09:47 AM.

I know a shameful plug but... Skipshot you should look into a Formula 18 if you want to race...I am sure, while watching from the monoslug, you already know that from this last weekend. Actually you were on kind of a fast mono and still yearning for another hull. We finished that race in 6 hours including two lunch breaks, complete with sandwiches, and numerous water breaks. I could easily to wait until the end for that beer I craved. It was cold and nice, but not too late.
