Curious that the R/C let boats race in the handicap classes (and get trophies) when they didn't even comply with the entry requirements in the NOR. OSR Category 4 requires lifelines.

Anyone have any news? Wrapped up on Friday.

If you buy one from SD Boatworks, does he include one of his MAGA hats too? 

I hear Wreck-It Ray from Portland has some time in his schedule.....

Is this thread going to lead to another thread, "PHRF boats & personality traits of the "special""?

Would be much more entertaining to discuss which TP52s are sailed at a level of modern 40 footers? I can think of one or two.

Got tired of his "wife" having a very public side piece? 

Except the Beave used a methanol fuel cell, an Efoy one

Is the Schock 40 going to have to cant their keel with a hand pump? Typically it's an electric pump. Seems like that is electricity being used to make the boat go (adding or removing righting moment)? Same could be said for the figaro2 using an electric pump to add water ballast.  

they have a cabin boy feature you like?
