MIAMI UPDATE & FUTURE PLANS
Update – Maureen’s son Trent is out of the hospital and starting on the road to recovery. The spinal fluid showed no cancer but he is still scheduled for months of chemo. Maureen’s schedule is undetermined at this time. Please send all your prayers and good thoughts to Maureen and her family during this difficult time.
As far as the Miami OCR, we went out the last day and won the first race. We decided to forgo the last race and get in early after a grueling week. We ended up winning the regatta by seven points and received our gold medal at the closing ceremonies. I want thank Team Paradise.org for the use of their SKUD.

Next up is the Disabled/Open Midwinters in St Pete Florida at the end of February. After that a boat will be shipped to China for the Olympic test event in May. We will transport 2 SKUD’s to California for further training after the St Pete event. We will be conducting on and off training in California in March, April, June and July. Look for us either in
I want to thank Mike Pinckney and Mary Kate for all their help. Also thank you to everyone who sent their comments and e-mails to Maureen/Dan and I regarding their son Trent.
