Wow, with a first name that long I would hate to try to write out the last name. But seriously his name is Geoff Deutschmann and his boat, Tyger Tyger, is a Viva 27 (28 footer) as Tami suggested.

Geoff's was the first of 4 or 5 built and appears on the front of the brochure.

Brad Gaian recenly brought the one from LA as Tami also mentioned. LA to L.A., what a strange trip!

Both are parked in my yard, just a few feet from Glenn's Tornado. They are 16' wide and hinged. The third one that I was aware of was owned by the builder and he had widened his to some 24' or so and added a front cross bar. I don't thing that customized one would fold.

I've raced on Tyger Tyger the first time Geoff took it to Ensenada, along with your friend and mine, Glenn.

I've sailed with Brad to Catalina Island (pic attached) and next year we may try for Channel Islands National Park.
