HOT NEWS: Triple Time wins 2006 ORCA Class Multihull Founder’s Trophy.

Skipper Rod Goodman’s Turbo F31 Trimaran “Triple Time” has won the 2006 ORCA Founder’s Trophy, assisted by regular crew Marlene Stuart, and Lambert Van Hulst. This trophy is awarded to the Southern California ORCA Class multihull that wins the most points in 9 long distance ORCA races over the entire year, including Ensenada (in which they won #3 Trophy), and Santa Barbara – King Harbor (in which they won #3 Trophy). This prestigious trophy has been awarded since the 1960’s and Rod’s name joins a stellar list of previous winning multihull skippers, including Rudy Choy and Buddy Ibsen. (Shorelines Magazine)

Triple Time wins 3rd place Trophy in the 2006 Santa Barbara to King Harbor Race!

In what is usually the windiest race of the year the Santa Barbara to King Harbor Race this year race turned into a real sleeper. Over 50% of the boats dropped out when the easterly wind at the start died and a very weak southwesterly tried to fill in. It was not unusual to see boats on opposite tacks going the same direction or boats that we close-hauled on port tack in the same area as boats on starboard with spinnakers fully drawing. Afterburner did well and avoided a lot of the shifting breezes by being out in front with the big monos. She corrected over the 2nd place boat (Delta Vee) by about 4 hours, which means she finished 6 hours ahead. Delta Vee ( Mike Leneman) and Triple Time (Rod Goodman) had a "nip and tuck" 2 hour battle at the finish in a dying offshore which filled in from the west at the finish, with Delta Vee nipping Triple Time right near the finish........the two boats have virtually the same rating. The trophy presentation was lightly attended as most crew were either sleeping or had quit and gone back to their home ports.......but the shrimp dinner was good as usual and the night time sailing with a bright moon was actually very nice.......a warm night, offshore breeze and no dew. (Report by Mike Leneman, Delta Vee)

Triple Time wins 3^rd place Trophy in the 2006 International Newport to Ensenada Race!

In a generally light wind race, F31R’s took 1^st, 2^nd, and 3^rd place (Delta Vee, Moxie, and Triple Time) out of 28 multihulls in ORCA class, correcting out on CatAttack (last year’s winner), all the other Reynolds 33R’s, the maxi-cat Afterburner, and even the ex-waterworld Trimaran Loe Real.
