ISHTAR GETS A NEW OWNER

It is with great sadness that we said goodbye to ISHTAR.  She was sold to a couple of folks who we hear will continue to race her, and who dream of shorthanded racing to Hawaii in her one day.  We wish them the best of luck, and that she teaches them as much about racing and having fun on the water as she taught us.  She is a great old boat, fast, and extremely rewarding to sail.  We will miss you Ishtar!

It is not all sadness here though.  The crew has moved on to bigger things, and we are racing Kotuku, a Farr 1220 that has more room, a lot more strings to pull, and yes, more waterline (almost 10 feet more, actually).
