    Pull out from my garage 1970's 14ft Capri--but it would be too high tech for what I'm thinking.

    Apparently racing sunfish in jeans is already cool

    The last NBCSN episode had a pretty good recap of the wreck and efforts to keep the boat afloat. Going to be a lot of work to get it going, I think I saw the timeline gives them 2 days to shakeout before the next round.

    I think racing Hobie 16's would be the way to go. Mandatory wearing of 1970s I Ski sunglasses, porno 'staches and a dime piece hottie for crew.

    Fuck sunfish as a spectator sport. Great boats, though.

    Fuck hobie16 too. The pioneer multihull. But not enough bow volume.

    Modern catamarans had the thrill factor, until some crazy bastard invented foiling cats. And now foiling monohulls.
    Crazy shit.
    And speeds are high enough that it’s a spectator sport.

    I’m loving it.
