Gnew Species of Gnat Discovered!!

Gnatster Joins the Fleet.

October, 2008.  After months of bar-bragging, Porsche trading and drunken promises, we purchased a beautiful used Melges 24 (Hull #131 formerly named "Karma") from George Roland in San Diego.  She arrived safely on the shores of Lake Ray Hubbard in Heath, Texas in late August.  We are very excited to start learning the boat and get racing with the Gulf Coast M24 Fleet.  We expect better photos of the boat out racing soon, but for now you can enjoy the photos we have as well as a cool "Sunday Sail" video here:

SD to PV Race:  Super Gnat Wins Division 4

March 2, 2008.  The race started with plenty of drama for the Gnat.  Kelp, aircraft carriers, more kelp and stiff southerly headwinds kept the crew very busy for the first 48 hours.   But we managed to keep the boat moving well enough to hold off most of the big boats until we reached Cabo.  The last two days across the mouth of the Sea of Cortez were tough.  The Gnat eased across the finish line just before sunset on Thursday a few hours ahead of Dennis Connor and Stars & Stripes.  Finishing 1st in Division 4 and 5th Overall in IRC (9th in ORR).
