No problem, Mike. I have a tendency to go a bit overboard - sometimes it works; sometimes it don't <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

I was literally on the road to a PRO certification workshop last year when a family emergency forced me to head back home. Hence the reason the PRO manual is in my possession. I have assisted race committee a few times and been on the RC boat (hell, I OWN the RC boat for our club LOL). I enjoyed it, but have yet to get enough racing (only two years so far) experience to seriously think I am ready to PRO. I just tossed that smart a** comment out there before someone got the chance to tell me if I was so unhappy with the outcome, I should PRO myself. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

I am lucky enough to race in an area dominated by great PRO's (both catamaran and keel boat experienced). when the time is right, I will have the opportunity to learn from some of the best.

Thanks for your "gentle" input, Mike. I appreciate it.
