Looking Back on 2012

Good Memories


Good Weather

Good Sails!

Perseverance in Oregon Pays off in Canada
More Great Sails!
Good Friends Having Fun!
What a year!  We have had some amazing adventures together and some great times with great people. So many great people actually.  From this year's retro RTC crew, to the Pac Cup team and shore crew, to the winning efforts we put forth this spring at Southern Straits and Oregon Offshore.  (Good delivery help there too, come to think of it.)  It has been a truly remarkable year.  Thanks to everybody who participated!

Kotuku has been cruising more and more, and I don't think you will see her out many days on the race course as we move to the next phase of our sailing dream.  We will sure miss the excitement, the passion, the excellence that we developed as a team though.  It was as fine a group of sailors and people as I have worked with.  To go from a PNW newbie boat to winning the VanIsle 360, RTC a couple of times, Center Sound Series, Straits, and giving it all we had in the Pacific Cup, I wouldn't have believed it would be possible.  The hard work, the good times, the selfless contributions of each of you are what made it possible.  Thank you.

Fair winds in 2013!  We hope to see you soon on the docks, down the Sound or across an ocean.
