Re: Sailboat racing
Nope, sold mine a few years back. Now I just serve as hired gun (tactician)on about 4-5 other boats. That one was a Taylor 41.
About to go look at another though, something about being Captain that I miss.

I've been a boat owner fro 25 years but my taste leans more toward the motor variety. Love that speed. Love to watch sailboats though. Tried my hand once and crashed into a dock. Figure I wasn't cut out for it after that.
Grew up in RI and used to watch the Americas cup every time. we used to make a week of it. Party hardy! Got to meet Dennis Connor once. Nice guy. |

Re: Sailboat racing
Well I don't have anything against power but my passion is racing. Been doing it since I was about 7. I've sailed on one of those 12 meter America's cup boats before and they are a rush. "Heritage" was the name but it never made the cut.

Re: Sailboat racing
I had an old Coronado 27' sloop 4 years ago but I moved so I sold it. Now I regret it. Was great fun. |

Think I'll take the pretty red one. Looks cool! I'll mount a Merc 250 on that baby and she'll crank!!! |
