Could be the same guy...guess he needed those new sails!
http://www.somersetsails.com/sails/m...eteau_35s5.htm The 35s5 is one FAST cruising boat. I've sailed J30, J35, J24, 30/30's, C&C 34 XL and so on. But the thing I'm most impressed with is the rack and pinion steering. It's tiller feedback in a wheel...amazing! Every wheel steered boat should have it. RB |

Bob has no concept of charity.
OzOne wrote in message Jesus Bubbles, AmCup boats are used in celebrity races. The cost of the boats involved in the fund raising regattas has nothing to do with the quality of the racing but more the quantity of cash that can be raised from and by their owners. Have you noted that the winners of the Leukemia regatta are the highest fund raisers? You may just be able to beat that other boat on the water if you get a crack crew, but you'll need to start raising cash now to actually win the regatta. Oz1...of the 3 twins.

How much did YOU give after the New Orleans disaster? I bet I could buy your boat with our single donation! RB |

Why knot try to explain PHRF racing to him next?
Does 'scull' mean 'chug'? Scotty OzOne wrote in message ... On 27 Oct 2005 03:19:18 -0700, "Capt. Rob" scribbled thusly: I have a sneaking feeling that the organizers of the LC hope for some good sailboat racing, Ozzy. Just a feeling! RB Then they'd better put more effort into it and less into raising dollars. Why are you attacking a charity race, Ozzy? Seems like a good cause. In 2004, the sailing community raised more than $2.8 million at 47 Regattas, bringing the overall campaign results to more than $15 million. More than 17,000 participants took part in the 2004 series. RB Who's attacking? I simply stated that they are more interested in raising dollars than having competitive sailing. We have the same thing here, Sail 4 Cancer. IIRC, totals raised last year was about 2 million....we had a can race. ie you scull a can of beer, sail to the opposite shore, scull another then sail back, scull another and so on. Last man standing wins....a slab of beer! Yess Bubbles it isn't politically correct. Oz1...of the 3 twins. I welcome you to crackerbox palace,We've been expecting you. |

He's carrying a very high end set of
sails. The pic is from the sailmaker's website for racing sails in fact. And who is that sailmaker? And why doesn't that "high end" main fit? |

Yikes...Can anyone explain PHRF? Racing PHRF may be fun, but it's 100% bullcrap. My friend wins plenty with her 1988 TR Catalina 30 against the J-Boat sailors who taught her how to race. She and they all know it's a joke. We'll race the 35s5, but I wouldn't take a win...or a loss very seriously. And anyone who does take PHRF seriously is an even bigger joke. RB |
