    As P1M would say, Are ye DAFT man?! You'd never catch me out there in anything that couldn't seat at least 250 for dinner.
    I am planning on doing exactly that.......I've done it before, in 1996. This time I'll be racing. That time I was a tag-along.

    Nor Cal Rabble, weather on the coast is turning out to be much easier than the early-week predictions had it. Instead of 20-30 knots of wind it should be 10-20. Allt he buoy reports show a decreasing trend. I'm going to drive down to Santa Cruz tonight and launch and get a few hours sleep, will probably head out around 3:00 AM. So sample a wee dram for me tomorrow and tomorrow night, and send good thoughts. Should be a passable-nice sail up the coast to Ankle Biters new home in Alameda.

    Good sailing Alan!

    We will toast your health tomorrow and do so again with you at the Shindig after the Campbell Games!

    Cheers
