Very cool Paul! I had a ride on a C and E scows last summer; crazy boats! Rick

If I lived on an inland lake I can promise you that I would be sailing an E-scow right now. They just make a whole lot of sense and can get up to some great speeds.

The little one (the MC?) is one of the fast growing classes in the country, with fleets popping up all over the south. Like I said, scows make a lot of sense for a lake sailor.

Much of our sailing is on Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, a lake well-known for scow racing. I must say, watching those E-scow crews douse the jib, raise the spinnaker, and round the mark in an one effortless, fluid continuum is art in motion. And yes, they are *moving*.

By the way, Paul, thanks for posting the link to the trailer. They don't say when or in what venues the the movie will be published, but they can count me in for opening night! :)
