All,
Viper #155 is available for charter for this winter for all 3 Sarasota events as well as Miami, and perhaps Charleston on the way back.
155 has an elite race record, and has proven particularly fast in Miami:
5th, Bacardi Miami Sailing Week 2015
2nd, Bacardi Miami Sailing Week 2014
2nd, Bacardi Miami Sailing Week 2013
4th, Bacardi Miami Sailing Week 2012
As Phil Lotz's former boat, it has been exceedingly well cared for and is now in the process of getting the "Whitecap special" performed on the keel cassette (re-fairing, pourable resin, etc - the process is profiled on Whitecap's Facebook page).
Charter can come with either 2014 sails (solid condition) or 2015 sails (barely sailed), depending on price.
Contact me by e-mail or phone if interested! Would love to see it sailed this winter.
Colin
I would be interested in chartering the boat. What is your contact info? Thanks.
Colin - If this involves any fairing of the hull, that fairing work is going to need Technical Committee approval. Please contact me directly and I'll walk you through what we're looking for and some guidelines - what can be done is very limited. The Whitecap guys understand our expectations, but you're the owner so you're our contact.
Thanks,
Dave
