That's it, I Quit!!!.....

...racing for this year. Pulled the boat out a few days ago, have it at home now to fix a few things, then its off for winter storage. We had another pretty good season, thanks to the dedicated crew who worked their patooties off and put up with me all year.

That's a sharp looking yacht.
What is the top speed you had it up to this year?

Had me a little worried with the thread title Al.....

Unfortunatley, us Canadians have to let go of these summer sports every year.
However, it does help with the desire to do better for the next!!
