Doc - congrat's to your boy's on the new Hobie and their instant access to the 20 or so regatta's to which i've no invitation (whaaa !).

My dream is that Hobie will produce their Acat and that it'll be revolutionary and the boat to beat in the international fleet and that it'll fit above my F16 on my trailer and my wife will beg me to buy one so that she can part forever with the eurodite ,champagne sipping, Pirsig reading crowd of friends she has now in favor of the "Hobie Lifestyle" with it's provincial, folksy, promise of campouts , hotdogs , warm beer and trophies back to eleventh place... Yeah , that'd be really great...
