Now we can use the "E" mark again. Not that we go out there a lot, but it is nice to have. I know that we will definitely use it for the Round the Island race.
I'm glad there is less of a chance of hitting the mark now.
Yea Coast Guard!

Remember - no racing on July 4th
What a nice windy night last night. Who would think that we could have wind this time of year! Congratulations to everyone who braved the 20 knots of wind and came out for a race. I think everyone who was there had a good time. It was great to see all the boats flying around the course.
Congratulations to Tim Godlee and Tim Paris on Tim's Boat for a first-place finish. With legs of the course just over a mile, the Stars were able to get in a nice race. The PHRF classes also had a nice course with the total length of just over 6 and a half miles. Congratulations to Jeff Staley and crew on Ostinato as well as Jeff Pevey and crew on Ful Dek for first place finishes.

It turns out all those small craft warnings were just talk. The winds we were seeing at noon died down to a quite reasonable night! Still plenty of wind (and humidity) for a race. The winds were from the southwest which usually makes for some very short windward legs. That definitely was the issue last night as well. We went for 3 laps in the Star class just to get a race that was about an hour long.
Still plenty of fun to be had. We saw some great long runs from Oak Creek all the way down to Deep Water Point. The Stars also had plenty of mark roundings and interesting windward legs. I think everyone was finished by 8pm!
Congratulations to Tom Price and crew on Bop in the Star class for a first-place finish last night. I think they were able to keep the other competitors covered and lead the last two legs. Also having a great night and finishing first was Willem Roosenburg and crew on Javelin as well as Jeff Pevey and crew on Ful Dek.

It appears it was dead battery night for Wednesday Night this week. Not only did Bowie's boat end up with a dead battery, but pretty much every battery on the RC boat died too. There was speculation that solar flares were the culprit, but I suspect bad luck was involved.
Never the less, we were able to get a race in last night after some delay. The wind pretended like it was going to cooperate, but it was Wednesday Night. We haven't seen the wind cooperate yet, so crazy wind shifts are the norm. That good 90ยบ shift was a surprise, though!
Congratulations to Jake Flory and crew on Claiborne Too Ferry coming out for the first night of the season and finishing first! Also having a great night finishing first was Patrick Penwell and crew on the Star Maddie and Jeff Pevey and crew on Ful Dek.

Still need Mark Boat help!
Yes, tomorrow's mark boat is looking pretty lonely. We need someone to sign up and help with mark boat tomorrow.
Good candidates are the people who got a trophy last year. I'm looking at you:
Jim Ryan
Ful Dek

If there is a week when you cannot sail for lack of crew, then mark boat is a good option. Not only do you get an average score instead of a DNC, but you get to help out your fellow boaters!
