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.  Below are
revised instructions/start times.

"Mark ""A"" = FLG 2.5 sec ""5"" - James River Channel"

"Mark ""B"" = GLG 2.5 sec ""1"" - James River Channel"
