Boat Talk

Some amazing shots of the Opti being put to the extreme; never thought of it as a big water sailor. (I don't do a whole lot of thinking)
.
It's that time of year, kinda like the anticipation of Christmas morning, wondering what's gonna be under the tree; in this case what's gonna be on the beach. The Everglades Challenge pushes the limits of small boat design; 2010 boats click here
.
Some great pictures coming out of http://www.capizzano.com/ - Check out their website for amazing sailing action photography.
.
As for worthy boats, it will be interesting to see what the Wizard and potentially SOS come up with; both have been known to show up with let's say inspiring watercraft; And with SOS now working for B and B Yacht Designs, things could get interesting.
.
Marissa has an Opti in the garage; It appears the boat could handle the extreme of an EC or Tip of the Mitt; Question is could I? Looks to be wet and uncomfortable for this old man; Have you ever sat on the rail of an Opti, me bones are already aching.
.
Probably shouldn't have posted this, don't want to give the Boo any ideas.

I totally understand the Christmas/EC comparison. Darn, I wonder what will be under the tree this year?
