Kanker Greenacres had vision so many years ago creator of the Flying Tako

Today in AC park we put the 3.3 Tako to task again dusting her of only to find still today this boat puts any BWind powered boats to task .

Roan Blackburns great idea last week to run the Tako today was vision as well .  One the great things about AC Park is we don't sell boats we race them . We don't promote one maker we promote all .

Today we did just that making a small but challenging course  we utilized the Lag free traffic free waters of the Seychelles Isles  Sailing sims that AC Park sits in .

What a day we had of laughs and close racing . Four races in all .  We ran a upwind down wind course a well as a downwind start and down wind finish.

Under the new Golden Gate Yacht Club In Second lifes banner our host Commodore Roan Blackburn ran a flawless regatta today .

I hope someone could mesh a Tako hull or even a Sculpt perhaps we could get Who Knew Anu to make one up .  who today seemed unbeatable . Silber was in the mix today as well casting gestures at us as we raced Moen Mon something like that it was Hilarious.

Me and Victor (NYC) seemed to have our daily personally match races in the back of the pack dueling at ever mark splits and gate splits were the order of the day .

Old friends and new sat on the sidelines and even sailed

Nikitali gave us a run for our money . New racer .

Steven LL grouped with me and Vic for some close splits and tactical racing first marks was great today none running each other over all giving room and sailing like pros .

I have to say AC Park is coming into its own now its has so many possibilities so nice to race with out helicopters and powerboats crashing over you or over zealous yachts cutting threw your course a really great practice and test area I believe .

SIlber Anu and xPaulx and new comer Nikitali lead the days racing after each downwind leg this where the Takos is brilliant .


Tako Nation was born again today and thank you Kanker in honor I handed and roan did as well Kanker glass for all . Thanks LIv for those so long ago she gave me when we brought racing back to the Adriatic .








If you don't have a Tako I suggest getting one soon , Ill take mine with extra guacamole..
