Hi everyone. We are getting very close to launch and it now appears that this coming week will be busy. Today Spirit remains at Waterline. She is having some final touchup to her keel but not the full blown race bottom job that we were expecting. This is a disappointment, but we’ll work around it …

Goodbye 2020, hello 2021

This was done to facilitate easy transfer to Waterline Systems in Quonset for some bottom work. Specifically, …
