    2014 Catalina Ski Race Connections

    I've had a few people ask me to help them find drivers, boats, skiers, observers and navigators. I've been able to make a few connections, but now I am going to utilize the big bad website world of BOATING!

    Currently, I am trying to help friends find the following: I will update this post as necessary 4/30/14.

    1. Skier from Catalina to Long Beach, we have one going out need one to come back.
    2. Boat, driver and navigator preferably a 36-42 foot V bottom for a very experienced skier.

    Thank you for your help and if you need/want to make a ski race connection, please feel free to post here or PM me and I will do it for you. This is a great event!

    This race can be hard to get a boat, driver and observer for. We have lots of great skiers from other countries that come over for this race. Another problem for securing a good crew, everyone is out there at the same time. I see this race as being ski racing version of the Daytona 500. Most famous race and so much history. If you don't ski, the party on shore is off the hook.

    You have time. Get out there and build! That would be awesome to root you on! Maybe start with one direction, coming back from Catalina?

    Do you mean actually ski time? How much ski time/miles would you recommend to get fully prepared? How many ocean training hours vs lake?
