Thanks for the pics Ben and Pete. Greatly appreciated. How are Gary and Paul doing over there???

That is just awesome. How many Americans are racing there?

Only Gary B and Paul W. There were 19 boats in the Class 3 race.

Pics look really good!!! I was surprised to see 2 boats that known as MOJO and MAPEI...COOL!!! Is there a website that related to these races that I can bookmark???

Thanks!

W O W . Wish We Would Have Went.

Geez, how many construction cranes can you count just in one picture? :eek:

Very cool to see someone trying to do it all right.

What kind of hull is the Victory Class III boat? Looks cool.

Thanks Pete for posting these pictures and I am glad everyone is enjoying them.

Dubai was great and I want to send out a special thanks to Paul and Gary for allowing me to come over and help them out. (Which I hope I actually “helped”) It really was a unique experience to be able to see Dubai along with the Class 3 and Class 1 races and one I will not soon forget. Paul and Gary are such great racers and it overall was such a good time for me to be able to see the show. Patti Fields was also over there with us and as the Team Manager, she is really great to work for. Also I can tell you this, there are not very many people say nothing of women who know as much about boat racing and getting things done on a team as she does.

If anyone has the opportunity to go over to see the races, jump at the chance… Thanks again to Paul Whittier, Gary Ballough and Patti Fields for allowing me to participate in this experience. It was a BLAST!!!

PS: Also when I have time, I am going to put together a page on my website with even more pictures and information from the overall trip to Dubai. So keep checking back on my site for updates.

The Class III Victory boat is a Victory hull. They just built it and it will be racing the next race.

And ref. the Sky Cranes; I think the official number is: A SH** Load!
