Ullman Sails puts on a quality regatta.  Please consider joining us the last weekend in June-- just two short weeks away.
Long Beach has been giving us good breeze lately.
If nothing else, consider joining us for drinks and food at the parties. It would be nice to spread the Viper 640 buzz.

Slow down there Riddell!  Straight bullets...better stick with 1D racing because with outings like that you are going to kill the Vipe phrf rating!!!

Congrats on what appears to be a flawless regatta!

Riddell and team were rocket fast in all the conditions of the regatta.
Thanks to all the boys from AZ and the guru from NZ for all the help with our boat.
In desperate need of training wheels.

Congrats, John.  That's fantastic.

Here's a few pictures of Vipers at LBRW, from David McBride's photo site:

John, what's the scoop with the EP sails?  I assume you're happy with them?  And is your kite by EP as well?

Cheers,
Felipe.
