WORLD MATCH RACE TOUR IN RI

Just a reminder that the World Match Racing Tour will be in Newport RI from May 30-June 4. Racing will be right in close to Fort Adams, great visibility from the beach, everything you could ask for.

The boats are 32 foot one-design catamarans so the racing is fast and furious compared to what we’ve seen in the past. I’ve seen some of this racing online and it’s exciting- tons of lead changes and close boat-on-boat action, all going on a big multihull speeds….

Take a look at the websites and check your calendars- couch space at my house in Newport if anyone needs it-

If you look very closely you will see that each runner has an arrow etched into the top. That is an easy way to tell which way to put them on the boat. That’s why they call them arrow runners. Many Arrow owners were putting them on backwards which makes the boat considerably slower.

What makes runners Arrow specific? I have a double Arrow with brand new, not out of the box yet, runners. I was going to rid myself of the Arrow but keep the runners. DN677
