July 4th @ 5:05 pm


And there she goes!!! Off to the 70th Anniversary Regatta behind the Pope Sails & Rigging van. We made it and could NOT have realized our dream of sailing No. 39 in the Regatta without the help of Doug, Libby and Jack these last 2 days. It was them who worked furiously on getting the rigging and sails up and working. What a beautiful sight.

It was so exciting to follow Doug and Libby with Told Ya! behind them as the American flag flew proudly in the wind on this important day. It was a very moving moment for all of us. If one truly believes in something it will happen. It just takes a vision, determination, passion, a lot of hard work and most importantly, great friends to help you along.
