pirate Help a Cruiser Beat Some Racers !

CF member and all around cool person Cidnie Carroll is in the very final stretch of the last challenge for the season of the 2011 Dyneema Experience Team.

She is the only cruiser who has a shot at winning and the only American and the only mom She has worked her way to the finals of the challenge despite not getting her rigging until 5 months later than the rest of the teams. The other contestants are highly sponsored race teams who have paid professional to make their videos and spread the word. Cid is just a mom and a cruiser with a dream who is working her butt off between refitting their boat for cruising this season and changing diapers to win this challenge. She wants the chance to get the trip to Spain and time of the Puma boat to sharpen her sailing skills!

It's a social media contest, so CLICKS COUNT! That's all she needs is a few clicks!



Above is a link for the original song she wrote and recorded herself about the Dyneema Challenge. It's just 3 minutes. Every view helps her win, please watch!

Then click here too 2011 Dyneema® Experience Team | Profile

on the tab that says follow me add your name and email. You won't get any spam from this, she needs followers and every name helps!

Thanks everyone and GO CIDNIE!

Re: Help a Cruiser Beat Some Racers !

What Schoonerdog didn't mention is that she (and I) are both Cidnie's competitors (technically speaking) in this contest. Cidnie has shown tenacity and enormous creativity in overcoming the odds in this contest and we should all help her cross the finish line first! Go Cidnie!

I can not adequately express how grateful I am for the support. Win or lose, having so many people offering encouragement and support is just amazing. THANK YOU!
