Nice to get in a long race! At just over 6 nm, that was fun to enjoy all of the evening.  We're losing a lot of daylight, though. We're losing about 12 minutes of daylight a week now, so our races in the future will have to be much shorter to get everyone finished before twilight. Make sure to use your running lights.

Congratulations to all the usual suspects - UnPhased, Ful Dek, and Manipulator.

 Hi Everyone,

It sure looked stormy at the start of the evening, but we were able to complete a race with plenty of wind. The wind even stayed up for the race! There was a big wind shift just before the start that caused lots of problems. Even windy nights just can't be consistent.

Remember that we are losing a lot of daylight every day now. Even if we have good wind, we may end up having shorter races just so we can get everyone back home in the daylight. That's the plan, but it doesn't always work that way. Here are some things that help.

1. Running lights - you should use them from sunset on.

2. Keep your VHF radio on and tuned to 78a - we are monitoring 78a and we hope you are as well.

3. Call us if you are dropping out - we check you in and we like to know that you made it home safely.

4. The hotline is still not working - hang in there.

Yay wind! Well, sort of like having some wind on a Wednesday night. We had just crazy amounts of current at the start flipping the signal boat around and light winds from the SW even though we were expecting stronger winds. But we could sail, so that's a novel experience!

Congratulations to Joni and Ray in the Star class for their first-place finish. Also having a great night was the crews on UnPhased and Ful Dek!
