Family health commitments will likely keep Bay Retriever from coming out for the first Fall Fun race this week, but let's try to keep the season going! The weather's finally cooling off, the breezes should last longer, now's the perfect time of year to go sailing!

Who's planning to show up? Who wants to be rabbit?

I'm sure we'll go with shorter courses due to the earlier sunsets, but Happy Harbor is a good option for a post-race gathering. The kitchen is open till 10, the dining room always has enough tables nearby to socialize, and the menu has a great variety of options.

Fine Tuned will be there... Assuming the weather isn't too non-tragic. Or we may just hang out and drink.

If anyone else is around we intend to be out there tomorrow.

See you out there!

Gorgeous light air evening, winds 6 dropping to 3.5-4 as the evening continued. Thanks Beda and Jason for coming along!

Race start time 18:20:10

Bay Retriever finish 18:59:41

It was great finally seeing a bit of sun again!

The weather's still warm, there's fewer powerboats, and the breezes are getting better - I hope more people are able to make it out this week!

Wed's forecast is W 5-10 becoming NW 10-15. Should be another great evening on the water, then we're planning to head back to Happy Harbor for a quick bite.

We're heading out on Bay Retriever for the rabbit race tonight, should have pleeenty of wind!
