Hey John
I was just wondering if you were going to the Raid?I am really
considering going.If I do go I am going to take the SEA FLEA.I am
fairly confident that I will be ok sailing across the bay If I have
any doubts I will just hang out at the beach.I am going to try to
borrow my fathers GPS and marine radio.I am going to mount the radio
inside the cabin and run the antenna along the top of the sidewalls
just below the spar on my Lateen.I went sailing today and it did
really well.I went about 1/3 of the way across Medina Lake.I was going
to sail across the entire lake which is about 16 miles but the wind
was variable and I didn't want to get stuck on the other side.I wanted
it to run a little faster so when I got home I added a small jib.It
has a luff of 6' a leech of 5' and a foot of 3'6".I am also
considering making a spinnaker for fast running downwind.
Thanks
Jason Nabors
