High temp of 85 degrees, wind 5 to 10, and four boats on the line – a pretty good way to spend an afternoon. If you weren’t there, here’s what you missed: Jimmy Harrell did Race Committee because he’s sold all of his useable boats. Joseph went along on the barge because all he wanted to do was fish all day. Robert Bollinger came up on a jet ski to watch his brother sail and ended up helping on the barge so he could learn about racing. Greg Phillips broke his perfect attendance record by not showing up after something like a three year run at every race day. Bill Shaw showed up with the fastest, coolest boat Lake Sinclair has ever seen, but he kept trying to use the 425 sq ft sail to catch fish instead of wind and it’s going to be real hard to sail to that 70 DPN on our short courses. (But I want one anyway) David Schnieder demonstrated the proper way to capsize and right a Y Flyer without even getting his feet wet. And last but not least, the Griffins brought their race-prepped H260 up to speed and trounced Jay’s Beneteau 3 out of 3 races to take first place for the day. Next club race is Sept 30 and Oct 1: don’t miss it! And in the meantime, come on out for the Thistle Wild Turkey One Design regatta – we still need RC help and chase boats.
