Thought I'd share this with you. We ran into this Yellow Pearson 26 on the lake Saturday, turns out they video taped my Catalina 25, Stephanos. Apparently, these guys have a plan to circumnavigate the globe on a Catalina 400.


Oh I sail by at about 2 minutes in to the video.

They have a website http://thepirateslife.com


Oh, and I placed 3rd overall in the race yesterday. Australian Pursuit.

Nice tack. Nice sail trim. No wonder you're doing well with your racing!

Thank you. Next weekend I'm entering the Frost Bite Regatta which is going to be big. It's amazing what a new bottom job will for with your boat!

Yeah, nice guys though. Their head sail is not all the way up either.

I found this comment on their site...

Today Justin, Toby & I
decided last minute to go sailing. It's been pretty cold here in Dallas
lately so we haven't gotten too much time on the lake. Fortunately it
was about 60 degrees today so we couldn't pass up the chance to get on
the water. During our time on the... lake we even met some guys that we
were "racing" that said they had seen the site & thought it was
awesome. That was pretty cool. It's too bad that they totally killed us
though... none the less they were cool dudes. We took the camera &
got some good footage that I added to the media section."

They are talking about Keelan and I aboard Stephanos.

I'd never met them before our encounter on the water Saturday. I've heard about them though. It's nice to see some younger guys that are enthusiastic about sailing.

They really plan on sailing around the world in a Catalina 400.

Its funny what we notice. Fenders in the water, headsail not all the way up. I noticed the genoa sheet wrapped around the winch and cleated off. But they are all thing we have probably done ourselves. It looked like they were enjoying themselves and thats what counts.

Exactly. It's good to see new blood getting into the sport.
