That's very good considering they don't have a SL Cat to practice on here in the US, or do they? What spinnaker cat did they practice on over here? Congratulations to them. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

They're both Hobie 16 sailors and they are getting damn good. Mike is now an A fleet sailor in div 16 and quickly approaching the top group. I only met Sarah once at the CISA clinic in Hobie 16s. She basically handed it do all the boys on that weekend. Both are fantastically great kids. Glad to hear they did so well and looking forward to racing against them myself.
Way to go guys!

Mike also went to the Alter Cup as the ute rep.

He hangs out in a little Syracuse, NY Fleet, mostly 16's but there are a few Tigers around.

Great job Mike and Sarah.
Mike had never sailed with Sarah until meeting up in France.
He has been fast for a while, but now he has learned how to race(something I continue to lack) from guys like Tom Korz at the weekly fleet races and area weekend regattas.
