Sean- give her the helm when foredeck needs to be done! That worked for me with 8 yr-old kids ("just head straight for that hill over there- NO! NO!- NOT THAT ONE! OH #&%*&(#"). Actually, it worked pretty well but be careful of doing it in too much wind. I hope the race comes off and that we make it, but both Gary and I are too old to plan that far ahead! Maybe your boat is too big for the race? I don't remember what the cut-off size is.

Jerry...
I know, I know.....I say with a sheepish look on my face. No assy in the near future. Gotta find someplace to mount the stinkin pole though! Jo's a pretty good sport about putting the chute up in light air but she's not to excited about jibing it if its anything but light. You know I have to keep her happy at all costs!!
Are you and Gary going to go clean up at the Cruiser Challenge???
Sean
