June 10, 2010. Kristin sent in the following update (edited) on Duet/Harbor Rat, as part of her report on the Wilmette Fleet. Click here to see that report. Also, some really good photos, see below.

Duet is now Harbor Rat...we had a wonderful renaming ceremony involving a call to the gods of wind and sea and lots of red wine! Several fleet members came, which was sweet. 

We were told she is 1963 O'Day. Her first owner here in Wilmette was Leon Wilke, then George Reichert, then Mike Clark, then Larry and Ron Falbe (Celerity) and finally Dave and I have owned her since 2004. Maybe you will get some clues from her nameplate (photo attached).

The Wilmette Fleet is 14 strong and we race every weekend in the summer and have anywhere from 3-8 boats on the line. Harbor Rat (Duet) is the reigning fleet champion for the last two seasons and going for a third :) This year we might have a couple of races with 9 boats! John Hellmuth (Echo) is now the Dolphin Fleet Captain and I've been given a promotion to "Dolphin/Cruising Fleet Captain"....such that it is!!

Your website has been a god-send to all of us. We really appreciate all your hard work.

Take care,

Kristin Keenan
