So what did you think of Craig's gumbo? It must have been good. As the last in the chow line all I got was some juice and a chicken bone - out of two big pots. Hungry sailors and crew! It was great to meet all of you and thanks to Craig for the party. I've got 1/2 keg of beer left so I will take it to the The Man Shed but then I'll never finish my boat. Instead I'll take it to work and we will finish it off in the parking lot.

Good luck to everybody in the next few days! I'll be following the race from the Palm Beaches - Mike Shappell.
