Sadly John Turpin lost his Potter in this year's Texas 200 after the 
boat grounded on a reef, ground against the reef and then filled with 
water in the waves. No one was seriously injured and the boat was 
later salvaged. Details here: http://www.tetra-sail.com/lossstory.htm 
It's a painful read but he is quite frank about mistakes made and 
lessons learned.

Mary Lou
