Hello all. Yes, Matt and I pitchpoled many times (4), because my skipper always pushes it. The flip on the finish line occured after the finish and only because I couldn't get the spin down (tangled around the spin pole). Yes, we only weigh 270 lbs. combined crew weight, but we are both very competitive and we both would've done almost anything to win that day and I think we proved that. With more time on the boat,no children/no home and no other work responsibilities, we just might've been able to pull it off. We'll never know. So weekend warriors we have become and hope to be for a long, long time to come. Unfortunately, the older the kids get, the more demands and the less time I'm sure we'll have. Damn!!! Robbie and Matt L. sailed very well and we had a great time trying to catch them. Another excellent date! God, I love my marriage!
