Hey Jerry, stop by Hampton, NH (it's right up I-95) and tell my Mom I said HI!

That's Allister and James from GBR.... they were here in Newport for a month training on the Capricorn while on a job here. They are both pro sailors, former 49er olympian, extreme 40s, and so forth... they are new to cats and getting ready for the Archipelago Raid.

That's cool, I thought we could find out on this site.
I wanted to sail so bad but we had a lot of bad weather while there, we did get to motor to Block Island on this, so I can't complain too much. It was pretty cool navigating through the fog. My brothers boat.

Wrong Forum!

That's pretty cool they're training for the Archipelago Raid, I'd love to do that.

No, I'd call that a signal boat...

Mike, if it were a signal boat, it would be named "Wind Shadow." Or, "Private Hole."
