-a force to soon
be reckoned with-Optimus Regattatoday, next
International Regatta in June for
kids up to 15
Zan did real well in his regatta
today-we had good wind and he raced 7
races and received a medal for
5th place-=they were right out there on the
ocean with big waves and wakes
from the downtown ferry.The course was quite
long compared to their usual practices-also
they had a strong current to
deal with and a long windward leg-for
his 2nd regatta and first time out in
St. T, he did real well-also the
youngest there.
One kid who is in the next fleet
up-also 10- Cy Thompson-and placed first
overall, is rated >number 1 in
the nation and 12th overall in the nation
(that means ages up through age
15). He will be America Cup material in 10
years or less. They said there
hasn't been a kid so young that sails so well.

of the girl space creature-it was taken
when we were coming in from a couple
day sail to anegada-great trip ever
