Am here in Honolulu on business (yeah, I know, someone has to do it). If it
makes you feel any better, the weather stinks. Wanted to let you know that I
wrote a great synopsis of Pottering in Colorado, in answer to a posting,
which somehow managed to get itself stuck in the flash mail component of my
AOL. Once I figure out how to get it out of there I will transmit it. Bob
in CO, are you the guy in Franktown?
If the weather clears here I will be able to go out on My dad's 40" Cheoy
Lee. Will retrieve "Tetra " from LA on 4/22 and head for the Bay. Potter
Yachters, are you still on for the event around that time? Harry or Judy
are you listening? I will try and hit the Potter factory before I hit the
road from LA. I think the answer to the P15 centerboard question is to use a
shear bolt so that it will stay upright if you capsize (yes, I am experienced
at this) but will break and release the centerboard if you hit bottom (there
are two types of skippers, those who have gone aground, and those who are
going to go aground).
