WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF establishing a team membership with Lokahi Outrigger Club (the black-hulled outriggers). Some of us have already been cross-training with Tony and his paddlers. If you are interested, we will be practicing with them on a "rotation" basis AND participating in some of the

ir LOCAL outrigger races. A condition of our ability to practice with them is that we participate in their races --- it will provide great cross-training for us! PLEASE let us know if you want to be included in the rotation schedule (they practice SAT's at 7:30AM).

PICTURES from the 2007 Naples Boat Parade from Iris, Josh and me (including some embarrassing video of yours truly - thanks IRIS) follow --- we all had a great time dressed as Christmas gifts under a brightly lit tree. Dr. Chen thought our boat really looked great . . .
