Viper Location Map

Thanks for the offer, but Pensacola is over seven hours from where I am.

We're looking forward to sailing the boat every weekend on a local lake until the Valentine's regatta in Miami Feb.11 and 12.

Damn that's a big state, and you're not even very far South compared to Miami.

[Patrick Daniel]

True. I'm over four  hours from coconut grove.

Hull #41 has been purchased and moved to Owensboro, Ky.  Would love to contact the two Vipers in St.Louis

[Peter Beardsley]

Congrats on the Viper acquisition!  Looking forward to seeing Viper 41 at some regattas in the near future.  Any chance of getting you to Marblehead in September for NAs?  If not there, hopefully in Florida this winter.

[Darren Gilbert]

Jeff - Congrats on the new acquisition to your 'fleet'.

It was great meeting you in Sarnia. I guess you'll have to race Viper instead of S2 next year eh?

Cheers!
Darren

I doubt you would want me at the nationals this year. We would just get in the way. We are looking forward to racing this winter.  We had a great time in Sarnia. It will be a tough decision which boat to race next year.  Maybe we will bring both.  I do wish I had spent more time watching the rigging process. It had been a year since the previous owner had sailed the boat so I did not get a lot of info from him. I  am some what confused on the proper rigging of the split tail mainsheet, mainsheet bridal, gnav, and out haul.

Jeff,
Don"t forget that for 90% of us that are trying to attend to NA's, it's more about fun, hanging out with the Viper family, seeing friends that you only get to see once a year, and maybe do a little sailboat racing.  I think of it more of a "Viper Jubilee" instead of a National Champs...  Nobody should worry about "getting in the way"... unless you're talking about being a slow pour at the keg!

Jeff, don't cut yourself short.

My story: After only two rides on Vipers (in Marblehead), I flew to Miami, bought my boat in Stewart three days before the 2010 N/A's in Coconut Grove, did the keel bulb at Shake-a-leg, splashed her, met everyone, and managed to not finish in last place.  Come on up!

[Peter Beardsley]

Jeff: it's also a great excuse to see 50+ (hopefully 60+) Vipers in person and figure out the answer to your rigging questions, see a couple of alternative rigging options, take some pictures and make some notes for your next Viper event.  I suspect free housing would also be available for Kentucky Viperers in Marblehead without any difficulty.

Absolutely right. It's going to be fun for all! To that point, we've got way more swag planned for the 90% than we do for the top 5 finishers.

About 40% of the Vipers in existence will be there, you don't want to miss it!

[Kelly Bechard]

I moved a bunch of boats. Please let me know if any others need to be moved.

[Garrett Johns]

Kelly, you are awesome!!!
Thanks for all the work
