A great race & day! Warm weather, plenty (!) of breeze (~15-25 kts), & a heartening number of boats to start the year. Having no finish times, as best as I could tell from my vantage at the rear of the fleet and with some trepidation the finish order was:
1) Recovery
2) S2 (Mark Swart)
3) Odyssey
4) Tranquillity
5) Wind Rush II

(Pls let me know if any revision is required)

Rest, relax, get some honey-do's out of the way and start planning for the Spring series(more to follow).

Happy New Year!

 Merry Christmas to All!

As we bask in the Goodwill, Peace, & warmth of the season, let us take a few moments to comtemplate the New Years Day race!

As we anticipate the inaugural race of the season & imminent new resolutions, it is well to remember the provident, even prescient, words of a well known local seer/gray beard. To paraphrase: what you do on New Years Day you will do oft throughout the year!

The race's first gun will be at 1300 local (1:00 PM) & 1310 start by GPS. Monitor Channel 71.

It's time to break the boats free of their bonds to terra firma & exercise the skippers & crews. (There's always room for more crew!)

Come out & celebrate the New Year & lengthening days.

See you out there!
