The stripper in the picture is my Fast Double. I got a call last summer about 2 weeks before the race from a Eric Albert up in Montreal. He was looking for a tandem for the race. I said that I had the fast double if he wanted to give it a try. After some problems picking up the boat he and his friend Christian entered the race. They didn't do to well, some equipment problems and they were out classed.
