That was cold but fun. Temps in low 40's but NNE 15 gusting to 18 made if feel much colder. Bright, sunny day, though, all in all , a great day for sailing. Alexis posted another bullet. Anam Cara was a very close second (again), and Rebecca J was a pretty distant third. We are consistent if nothing else. 1:00 start time seems good for all. Let's stick to it.
