It was a great night out there last night with plenty of air and nice cool temperatures. Unfortunately, you also need some water to go sailing. It seemed like someone pulled the drain plug on the Chesapeake Bay yesterday leaving many of the boats hard aground in their slips for the evening. Strong winds from the north has it's drawbacks too.
Those who could make it out had a great time. Given the festivities back at the Club after the race, I think those who could not make it out to race also had a great time!
As usual, the wind was squirrely at the start. That's what we get for racing in the evening. There was a little trouble with OCS for a couple of the starts, but it all managed to work itself out.
Congratulations to John Hines and crew on Hinesight for very fast night. Not only did they get line honors, but they crushed the class finishing correcting 5 minutes over the class. Claiborne Ferry and her crew also had a great night correcting over Ostinato by 36 seconds. It's always hard to race the watch. Also looking great was Tim Paris driving the Star Tim's Boat to a first. Great job in the heavy air.
