Despite limited experience in these boats, Paul decided to treat himself to an early Spring Break by participating in the first-ever Weta US Nationals, hosted by the Fort Walton Beach Yacht Club in Florida.
Paul came out 8th (of 21 entrants) and a whole lot wiser about boat handling in high wind. The best part of the experience was spending quality time on and off the water with Weta designer Chris Kitchen who traveled from New Zealand to join the event.
