Post by: David Guerra on November 19, 2011, 03:07:02 PM
My name is David and I am a former viper owner. I currently sail a vanguard 15 but i plan to get another Viper eventually.  I live in Sebring, Fl and I would like to get back into Viper sailing. if there are any Viper owners in southern Florida please contact me.

How about Melbourne? Its not quite southern Florida. I have #76. She's not presently in sailing shape due to a keel bolt problem, but should be back to sailing soon.

Check out www.sail-race.com and click on Melbourne yacht club. During the winter we have rum races every other Sunday. Just some friendly PHRF racing. I'm hoping to do some of the big races this year. I've had difficulty getting steady crew. And the boat has needed some work. Should be ready to get back in the water by the next rum race in December, assuming my keel repair works.
