I was at our sailing club meeting last night, where we had Gary Jobson speak.

he related a story of him sailing on an Old Friends new sailbaot...

He had his daughter, Son in law and his son aboard.

So, Gary asked the owner about the name of his new boat. AFRICA.


The owner said, well... its actually an acronym.
Another Fricking Raceboat I Can't Afford.


:D

ps: he showed some videos of the AC trials...
this should be a great show! the boats are doing over 40 knts!

Sounds good. He is coming to our yacht club on May 18. We are hoping for a good turnout.

We had him speak last year at our club - also had dinner with him. What a great guy and speaker. He even had the powerboaters hooked with his presentation. I could listen all day to him.

Gary...

We've had him several times in the past at our club for our sail racing seminars. Awesome presentations and one helluva guy!
