And how did you rate a position on Deuce Coupe? Man am I jealous! One of the problems with a Stiletto 27 and my distance from Sarasota is I would need 2 weeks to do that race... 1st day take boat apart pack it up to travel, 2 days travel, 1 day set back up sort out. Race/cruise (I don't race well) relax, then reverse. One day.........

It was sad to see Merlin after the mast came down.

We got off easy with just a small tear in the jib.

You on "Deuce Coupe" are hereby commended for capsising in Saturday's race 1 and making the start of race 2. My compliments on your seamanshp!

Jack

Thanks Jack. It was pretty wooly out there. A stiletto 27 hull holds a lot of water.
