Paul,

I have another commitment on 2/19, although I'm free to sail on 2/18 and 2/20; only a 3.5 hour drive to Long Beach for me. Any desire to try 2-up sailing?

The Ferrari doesn't have a trailer hitch, so it would be hard to get the boat down there with it; in fact, it's so darn low that a hitch would be dragging on the road anyway. Also, it's pretty hard to sleep in--you know, the normal YC parking lot accomodations.

Come down for a tuning session and we can spend some time on Millerton Lake tuning boats and some time in the surrounding foothills tearing up the pavement.

Speaking of ex-skaters and tats, me and the kids are currently up to our ears in sawdust building a first class halfpipe ramp for the backyard--I guess I'm not an ex-skater anymore. No plans for any tats, though. The F16 logo would make a pretty sweet one, though...right on the shoulder.
