Thursday night sailing is in full swing, and although the weather seems to think it is still winter, the sailors are in full belief that summer is here. Sailing was underway by 6:30, with the wind coming out of the southeast, but by the second leg of the first race the direction had shifted to the northwest. Wind velocity and direction continued to jump haphazardly with every puff and boats on a beat were at times wing-on-wing. But the racers persisted and with only one briefly postponed start, three full races were completed.
The crazy conditions coupled with high quality sailing from the social chairs, Andrew & Maddie, were serendipitous for the sailors as by the time boats were on the ramp, burgers were almost ready to come off the grill. |
