Don't forget your giving me loose foot lessons this summer! Racing not
required. I'm buying the oyster sandwiches next time too!

Cheers

Oz,

The SOS was in its 1st season. Maybe 2 month in use. Not blaming the
SOS. It did what it was suppose to do We took a wave over the Bow, just
setting up and getting ready to turn down wind. Bow man took enough
water to set off the Auto inflater. The rest of us stayed dry behind the
pilothouse.

The mast man seen it coming and stepped up on the PH roof. He was the
one who save the day. Set the tack as we turned. came Aft with sheet and
Bow man turned Mast man raised the sleeve.

Bob had to release air to drink hot Choc. on long run home.

No one hurt and we still laugh about it. Bow man uses a regular vest
now. Actually I do believe "Pnuema" racing days are over. The Old Fart
has kind of out grown it
