Last Saturday Race Results

On Saturday, June 25th, after much serious meditation and contemplation, a few intrepid, hard corps mariners elected to look a major case of heat-stroke dead in the eye and attempt a pursuit race. This group included two “newbie” neophytes, (Miguel, I didn’t get his last name but he is a co-worker of Carl Saylor, and Sean Conner, my nephew) who crewed with Charlie and I on the Thera-P. Even though the sun was brutal, the humidity stifling and the winds were light, erratic and consistently inconsistent, we had a good race…at least my crew had a blast. The two newbies were enthusiastic and quick learners and expressed an adamant desire to be invited back for a repeat performance…well, at least when the temps retreat from the “deepest pits of hell” region. On Sunday, without the prospect of looking like wimps in front of the “newbies”, who couldn’t make it, the inherent fear of our own common sense kicked in and we elected to call off the races. I mean…no kidding, the winds were a little lighter and the temps a little higher…honest.
