YKY, MF’er

Yes, it’s all Antrims. all the time, here at SA…This is the new Antrim 40 YKY, finally sailing without mishap!. From owner Sue Senescu:

Yippee Kai Yay (YKY) is happy as can be, after some concerns including mast compression and hitting a whale, but all is good now. Our Antrim is a Class 40 where as Rapid Transit (see Red Rider, this page) is a custom Antrim 49. We were both supposed to be in the Transpac 2009 but didn’t quite finish in time. It was a big relief to spend more quality time. YKY has 1600lbs water ballast, RT has a canting keel. Our ballast transfers by gravity in less than 15 seconds, really slick. We are excited to see Rapid Transit come down to SoCal! Here’s a little slideshow and here’s a little viddy..
