Ding, keep me informed of your Hiram's Haul attempt. Between a week long offshore powerboat race in Key West, and a long string of car races/testing ending in a trip home (Louisiana), my dance card is pretty full for the year.
Hiram's Haul is a no go for sure but I heard a rumor that there may be a weekend in November when a bunch of boats will gather at Pineda Park beach and sail south to Sebastian around lunchtime and then we may decide to sail back the next day depending on our mood. To be perfectly clear this not an event, regatta, race or even an organized gathering. I've simply told Stick Boy and Blondie that we can sail south faster than they can and they don't agree. There will be no results but we will happily share the stories of the adventure with you.
