Glad they made it around the Shuttle without an "international incident" like last year -

I got to watch them come in at Cocoa Beach yesterday. That Hobie Wildcat is awesome, besides finishing first overall on leg three of the race. I got to see some old friends and made a few new friends...somehow I missed Damon. Its always interesting to watch these boats come in through the surf.

That Wildcat looks even better upclose! I was surprised to see how far back the C2 finished in the pack.

i think the C2 has also had very good finishes on other days.
can't judge a boat by 1 finish, even though it's skipper is top notch, so is the Wildcat's -

You mean Hobie Europe sent one of their best skippers to debute the Wildcat in the US. Who would have guessed
I wonder if I owned one if they would have forbid me from entering to keep from giving the Wildcat a bad name...
