Henry and Vicki Piersig are keeping the boat on the starting Line,
I have been 30 years on the boat, in first the 15 years a syndicate of 4 owners raced the boat very actively. At that time we we raced under the banner of  the Lake Ontario R Class Association. Than there was a decline of the fleet and it was awful to race PHRF for some years. Some boats have moved around and now things look a lot brighter. Toronto has Fantome. Diana and Gypsy, and Sodus Bay has Nayada and Vitesse ready to bring back the Association.
