Santa Barbarbra to King Harbor
Randy Alcorn2009-07-28 12:00 UTC
Any CALs doing the SB-KH race this weekend?
for some reason the RC has not posted a list of the pre entries and classes this year.
Normally I see Yo Ho the CAL 29 and a blue hull CAL 40 out of Long Beach.
I am crew on No Compromise in the J105 class again.
This is a good race, I am bringing my son for his first over nighter. He is almost 14 and is working the bow. A little to light to trim the kite but can really drive.

Randy,
Did you ever send your story to Latitude 38? They are looking for MOB stories. See below:
from Lectronic Latitude:
MOB Mentality - Send Us Your Story
July 24, 2009 – Latitude 38 World Headquarters
People fall off boats all the time, especially racing boats. Most are recovered quickly with little more lost than a few places in the standings. But not always. For most of the sailing demographic, MOB — ‘man overboard’ — is one of the most dreaded scenarios, right up there with fire or sinking. We've run many articles over the years detailing the tragic consequences of some of those incidents; occasional articles about near-miraculous rescues; and countless ‘how to’ articles about the best ways recover overboard crew.
We were surprised to realize recently that in all that coverage, we have given only tacit attention to the other end of the MOB pole — the person who was actually in the water. So now we want to do that, and we need your help. We’re asking anyone who’s ever fallen off a boat (and obviously lived to tell the tale) to write a short summary of what the experience was like. At some point in the future, we’ll compile the accounts into a feature.
Please include as many details as you can — year, boat, boatspeed, conditions, etc. We’d like to know whether you were wearing a lifejacket or not, what was going through your mind, how long it took to get rescued, and what actions the crew took to make it happen. We’d also want to find out if and how the incident might have changed your life and your sailing attitude or those of your rescuers. Email all incidents to LaDonna Bubak. If you know someone with a good story who is too shy to write themselves, send along their contact info and we’ll get in touch with them. Photos are encouraged.
We'll send Latitude 38 T-shirts to all respondents whose stories are used in the article

I did send it to them. They only took one paragraph out of it about me watching the boats go by me and nobody saw me, no matter how hard I blew that stupid whistle.
I will resubmit and see what happens.
Thanks again Mike.
