Ken,
Congratulations on your outstanding sailing performance. You've got many of your
fellow Ida Lewis members addicted to the Volvo Ocean Race website. What a
thrill it has been to follow you and the Puma crew around the world.
On behalf
of all Ida Lewis members, congratulations on winning the last leg in Sweden, the
Galway inshore races and a great run across the Atlantic.
Wrapping up a second
place finish in what is certainly one of the world's greatest sailing adventures
is truly amazing. We're proud that two of our members have participated in such
a incredible event.
We wish you success in the next inshore races and of
course, hope you're first to St. Petersburg. All of us look forward to seeing
you at the Club upon your return to Newport.
Again, our most sincere congratulations to you and your wonderful crew.
