Blue Book of Boats

We – the Delicate Balance Fans Club sends our best wishes to  all the sailors, crew, race committee and their friends at the Vic Maui Race 2010 party in Lahaina.  We will not be at the Celebration Party, but one of our crew Terry Reid will be there on our behalf.   We all shared in the DRAMA and the EXCITEMENT, and this is something we will never forget. We are looking forward to hearing more stories from the Delicate Balance crew members after they’re fully rested.
