Mischa is coming back? Sweet!

I wonder if he's still going to do it even if the new Hobie F18 isn't available by the time the race starts....

Oh for the love of....do I have to stand on one foot while I do it too? (I never got to a form I could fill out). I'm sure they'll get us hooked up soon.

Maybe I've mastered the intarwebs and you haven't?

Its a series of tubes.

Well, in that case, "I know Kung-Fu."

I figured it out (actually Claude got it sorted out). You still do have to save it as a draft before it will let you finalize it though.

Team Seacats Orange and Team Seacats White are on the board.

10 teams registered at this point (and I know there are more to come). That equals last year's entries already. C'mon guys, sign 'em up! I remember the days of 18 to 20 teams and two rows of starts!

Chums is in for sure and registered. Chris Green is comming for sure with the Tiger wich will add another F18. Gonna be a good one. I'm looking forward to leaving from Islamorada.

Awesome!! 13 teams registered! This is fantastic!

anyone need ground crew? I've got a couple of guys interested and looking for a team. Please PM me here if so.

Call Krantz.

Wow, 15 boats are now registered and it's only mid January. This is going to be a very exciting year.

You oughta make it 16!

Team TCDYC is in. (F18)

I suppose this is as good a time as any to announce that I will be blogging this year's event for Team Seacats from the boats themselves. I'm calling my special coverage: Live...from the tramp. Catchy, no? It's just that, with everyone posting on sites nowadays, I was forced to raise my game.

Anyhoo, we plan to have a third, media only boat wo-manned by two accomplished sailors: Strickland's wife, Robyn and Zander's bride, Wendy (who will have their imminent arrival Abby, by then 2 months, lashed to her in an adorable pink and white striped sling). I've only seen ultrasound photos thus far, but she seems like a charming girl.

I will be switching between the Orange and White teams throughout the day with the precision of an airborne refueling mission by utilizing a complex series of acrobatic moves learned while watching Cirque de Soleil's latest show, Kooza, in Atlanta a couple of weeks ago. It looked really easy, so I'm confident.

LOL Bonnie, I'm so glad that you're doing the blogging this year. I look forward to getting the Bonnie interrogation.

All I know is that I've heard from a reliable source that a certain infamous ground crew member from team seacats has dated a contortionist as seen in the Kooza show...

Well then someone needs to notify the authorities pronto because the three featured contortionists in the ATL show ranged in age from 11 to 16; though I'm certain there are some bendable babes on the payroll who are over the age of consent.

Dated...I love that euphemism. Would we say he is infamous...or merely adorably experimental? As a "reliable source" concerning such matters, I could tell some tales of tail myself. That is, if we are indeed speaking of the same Ground Crew member.

Honestly though, he's one of the most kindhearted and good natured people I know. (Plus, I get to put sunblock on him every day during the Tybee week. Not too shabby.)

I'll be really happy to see everyone again after taking the year off in '08 to work on completing my manuscript about the life of Rube Goldberg. Racers, prepare to be interrogated. If you don't talk to me I'm just gonna make up weird stuff about you to post.

I wish someone would do this at Tradewinds. Personally, I have no idea how to go about it.

Would do what Pete? Blog about it?
