joeyg is new to the board.

Iirc, he's 17, a high school senior with little cat experience but very eager to learn. He has sailed other types, particularly one of the tris. Hopefully we'll see him at Tradewinds.

Joe, there are all types on this board, some of them are the "throw him in the deep end" type. But there isn't anyone here that won't try and help you if you need it.

Good deal! Are you coming for the pre-olympic thingey( I don't keep up) or just a chance to sail in the Keys?

Im coming for a chance to sail on an awesome boat in an awesome place. Quite honestly I dont think I stand a chance to the guys who have been racing these boats for a few years, when I am just starting now.
