1. no, early season damage/repairs and late season wife's brain cancer recurrence took a toll.

2. didn't make race total goals but did learn to sew my own sail repairs!

3. stand out was 3rd. place finish in the round cat island race...huge seas, strong winds, beat a nacra 20 and corsair 27 on my '77 prindle 16!

4. ah ha!...sail all you can because NOTHING in this life is guaranteed(don't wait for retirement to enjoy the ride)

5. 2012... more distance racing, like it more than rounding triangular courses and getting my wife healthy again, she likes the boat too!
