Choptank Fleet, Paprika looking for crew

 Hello,

 


Paprika is very close to being ready to participate in her maiden ESSA Choptank Wednesday night race!  I had two guys lined up but they both bailed so I'm seeking racers/cruisers/warm bodies to help sail her.  She has her new deck hardware installed; clutches, line organizers, and genoa car leads, as well as new halyards (sheets should be here soon), backstay line, and Sailrite canvas sewn by yours truly.  Sails are in very good shape!  Her Yanmar 2GM20 was just restarted Friday and runs great with her folding prop.

She's in the non-spin class and my goals for this season are to meet the other crews and skippers, not hurt other boats or Paprika, and have a good time, all the while learning racing as we go.  Truth be told, I had a season racing a few years ago on Aura, Bob Gallagher's J boat.  Learned a bunch, but then got injured and eventually moved out of town.

I appreciate anyone helping out.  Any and all are welcome!  Feel free to call, text or email, or stop by if you're on the docks.
