Svendsen's Thursday Night #16 at Treasure Island Sailing Center | July 17 |
Story |
Quite a random night- huh??? It was blowin' mad during launch and the first race or 2, then it got really shifty with light patches. The puffs were coming down starboard with a bait on the lefty near the top. It seemed to work starting starboard end on the knock- tacking to hit a strong starboard mid-way up. But then again- 3 of the races where won by the port shift on the first windward leg... needless to say- good racing.
In this breeze, the 1 arounder's really didn't seperate the fleet at all. We need more 2 er's to stretch the legs. Congrat's to Ken and Margaret who sailed consistently, winning the last race to take night honors. Tom and Greg sailed well. Avery's the only reasonable sailor on her boat but she has a lucky skipper... Lot's a boat tipping over- sally and linda- you dry yet??? But... the best part of the night- social! Burgers were grillin', food all around, Milwaukee beer night with High Life's, PBR's and MGD's. A little bias- but don't you think best social night of the year???? hard to beat. Burgers were still grilling and there was still beer we when turned off the lights. oh.. and the full moon. coincidence... huh? that you to those that signed up online with your full names- saves me a bunch of time. Those that didn't, arggg, is it really that hard? help me out with names if you are one of the ones I couldn't find. good night! |
