8/24/2005- Ocean Planet Update Extra

Hot off the press, there are couple of great shots of OP at the start of the Monhegan Race! Check it out at http://news.mesailing.com/.  Click on the pics for a higher rez view.  Note that our fantastic CUBEN FIBER  mainsail (see http://www.cubenfiber.com/) by Maine Sailing Partners looks almost new after about 30,000 miles.  What a sail!

Another quick note, if you are planning to come to tour Ocean Planet at Portland Yacht Service this weekend, plan on Friday or Saturday (Aug 26 & 27), as I have to be out of town on Sunday.

See you there (Friday & Saturday that is)!
