Tuesday Series July 14th
Forecast was for winds out of the NNE starting at 4 and dropping to 1. This is one time we were glad we ignored the forecasters and showed up. Winds were 4-6 out of the NNE, so it turned out to be a pretty good night for racing. Short course was from S/F to mark 8, downwind to mark 1 and then a windward finish. Course was lengthened to include mark 2 after mark 1 to make the finish more of a windward finish. Wind actually increase enough that our 12th race was extended to a double loop. Unfortunately, we pushed our luck and the plug was pulled on the wind machine. The race had to be abandoned. Reminder that we are making this Saturday a make-up race day for the cancellation of last Saturday’s race. We will be only sailing 6 heats as the day is intended to be a pond cleanup day, which will follow immediately after completion of our racing. Your attendance would be greatly appreciated.
