Subject: [bubs] Sailing this week and fundraising conference call
Hi everyone,
Who is in for Robie Pierce fleet racing practice this Wednesday?
And who is in for match racing practice on Thursday?
For anyone interested, the BUBS board will be having a conference call tonight
to discuss fundraising with John Oliviera from ABC. All sailors and volunteers
are welcome to join the call.
Phone number: 712-451-0697
Access code: 319161
Last week we had four boats at Wednesday practice and got off five races or so.
Duane and Denis won the night in tricky shifts. It was a beautiful evening with
wisps of fog floating over the river. On Thursday, we had one boat out without
any guides aboard! Pauline and Willi practiced starts using an audible buoy,
while Grace and Leo coached from a motorboat. Come join the fun this week (with
all three buoys)!
Yesterday, Pauline, Jason and I trained one new sighted guide. Welcome, Jim!
For those not on Facebook, a couple of photos are attached from last week's
practice. Descriptions are in the post script.
Sail fast!
Grace
P.S.
Photo 1: Sunset over the Cambridge skyline, with a silhouette of an Ideal 18
sailing upwind towards the viewer through wispy fog.
Photo 2: Pauline and Willi sailing a Sonar around an audible buoy, heeled over
about to trim in the main. Dark water and faint mackerel sky.
