Great job out there last night! Everyone had reasonable starts with no one crowding the line. That let us get everyone started on time to make for a nice evening. And it was great out there! The Stars were able to get in a nice long race with reasonable wind over the evening. The PHRF boats were able to get in a 5.9 nm race with plenty of spinnaker work. All in all, just a great night to be out there.

The PHRF boats were out in force last night with 7 in each class. That was great to see and I'm certainly glad I made the starting line long. Congratulations to the crew on Javelin and the crew on Ful Dek for first place finishes! With all the spinnaker sets and gybes, there was plenty to do out there. I hope we didn't interfere with beer consumption.

The Stars has a race that lasted just over an hour which is great. We usually can't do that on a Wednesday with bad wind direction or strength.  Even with all that racing, it was still pretty tight right up to the finish. Congratulations to Palmer and Gauthier on Star 8024 for a first place finish!

And last night was the first all-girl Star team we remember in a while. Watch out, boys! Between Sewell, Ali, and Joni, you're in trouble!

Everyone is asking about the Mr. Jimmy and guest skipper races. Makes sense - it's hot out, so its time to race around the island. Here are the dates:

Good fun! Mark them on your calendars. Note that we Start the Mr. Jimmy earlier than normal!
