Dave, that is a great looking boat. I'm sure I speak for most people here when I say we are looking forward to pictures of your restoration.
I took this picture on April 2nd as Crazy Ivan sailed out of the BYC harbour. This is in Ottawa, normally a very cold time of year but the temperature got into the high 20s (low 80s F) and these guys couldn't resist. They have dominated Shark racing for the last few years and are the current World Champions.
