To all,
I was not aware of a "10 minute" engine rule. I had my engine on after
that time. If I had been aware I certainly would have turned it off.
Therefore I withdraw from the race and the series. This was suppose to
be fun and it was until now.
Regards,
Southern Yankee II

Fellow Racers,
There was some question on the Anam Cara as to the 10 minute engine
rule.
It was our crew's understanding that the rule within the club is
"engines
off" 10 minutes prior to the first horn. Based on radio traffic, there
seemed to be a bit of confusion. I know the Recovery was at the start
line
with us at 10:40. There is no question that we are in a club with fair
and
honest sailors. If any of the racers listed below had your engines on
after
10:50, I know you will withdraw yourself from the race.
I hope we can clear up the confusion before the official scores are
made.
In kindest regards,
Anam Cara Crew

Unofficial results of race 1 are on the website.
Rebecca J 1, Recovery 2, Anam Cara 3, Alexis 4, Windrus 5, So Yankee 6,
Odyssey DNF.
After drifting over the starting line, and wondering if I'd be lynched,
after about half an hour, the wind filled in and we had a decent race.
I
hope you all took time to notice the dolphins playing along the Rescue
shoreline, and the ominous waterspout that popped up over Fort Eustice
as we
were finishing.
Hope you all have a great Labor Day weekend, we're going saiing on the
Rapahannok (or however you spell it).
See ya week after.
John
