Photos of last night's race are up in the Albums. I uploaded all of them, haven't had time to edit. I have some great pics of Amara's finish that couldn't be uploaded. Will try later.

Tranquilo and crew were ready to go, but had an equipment failure before we could even check in. Sadly we had to return to the marina.

Hi Ted,

Thanks to you and your RC team for organizing a great race.  Loved the course, and it was a fun, beautiful evening to be out.

Take care

Two follow-up notes:

First, only ten boats came out to race on a gorgeous June evening; warm, sunny, long daylight, and excellent wind for racing. Where are the rest of you?

Second, lesson learned. Our scorer Jim Bradshaw has a new cell phone number 443-616-8708. It is included in the 2025 RC manual, but since I already had his number in my phone I glossed over that and texted the race results to his old number. A reminder for future RCs.

As does Amara since the weather is so nice! 


Thanks Ted. Knot Home plans to be there. 

Take care

Ahoy!


Maya is the race committee for tonight's race. Following four weeks (five if you count the practice race) of poor weather tonight's weather looks great for racing; sunny, warm, low-to-mid teens wind from the SSE. I'm hoping for a great turnout!


Maya will likely set up the start near HHSA B.


A reminder that there are only two starts; combined racing classes start first; combined cruising classes start second. Boats are encouraged to fly their class flags to make it easier to recognize your competitors.


Crews are encouraged to gather at Skipper's Pier for post-race celebration.


Once I leave for the boat I will not have access to my e-mail. Text any questions/comments to 571-232-3482.
