RE: [Cal_Boats] Solomons Island Race

Hi, Chris. CAL 25s do not do the event. As we get older, the boats seem to get ever smaller.

Charlie, Two years ago (maybe three) at the after race party I met a big guy who raced a Cal 25 named "Night Moose." So, I know for a fact that SOME Cal 25s DO do the event ;-). Last time I did this race it was on a 27" Pearson Renegade and I think it took us just under 24 hours to finish. We spent the first 2-3 hours drifting with the tide in the wrong direction. I'd really like some wind this year. Chris > Hi, Chris. CAL 25s do not do the event.

Chris, I was talking about the CAL 25s as a one design Fleet. I cannot speak for the less sane among us. :~] Cheers Charlie From: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com [mailto:Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Chris Collins Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2006 5:07 PM To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Cal_Boats] Solomons Island Race Charlie, Two years ago (maybe three) at the after race party I met a big guy who raced a Cal 25 named "Night Moose."

Charlie, It is a fairly long race (45 miles?) for small boats and notorious for lack of wind, or south wind--right on the nose. Still, it would great to see a herd of Cal 25s sailing off into the night together. Hope to see you at the GOB regatta this year.
