Tuesday 9/1 Race Results
For the first time this summer the winds were out of the SSW, unfortunately they were light. There was enough wind initially to round 1 to port, over to T mark to port, down to 6 to port and then a long windward finish. That only lasted two heats as it was taking too much time to cover such a long course. The course was shortened to rounding mark 2 to port, down to 8 to port and then a windward finish. It was still exciting and challenging racing with several close finishes, one of them being a Tuesday night tie. Unfortunately, the winds lightened to the point that we only completed nine heats.
We have the makings of a Gold fleeter in Brad F. He has consistently been a first-place finisher in Silver and last night, with there being only one start, he beat the Gold fleet twice overall. Great job Brad. This Saturday’s is an Open Sail so bring what you want and have a great time sailing.
