Looks like the F-18s may be racing with 12-metres on Friday, where else will you ever get to do that??? Cats will race on the fast boat circle during the weekend. Looks like three classes, so minimal traffic. Mike Last edited by brucat; 07/05/15 01:02 PM.

Mike Glad to hear it. Last year's cat RC work was less than stellar, but all in all a great regatta. "I said, now, I said ,pay attention boy!"

The RC considered towing, now the southerly is starting to fill and they are arriving at the harbor. Mike Last edited by brucat; 07/10/15 02:24 PM.

brucat OP Carpal Tunnel B Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 3,969	Sorry for the dearth of info today. After a postponement ashore, we launched into a slowly dying northerly. By enduring the ensuing bake-fest, we had the fleet in position when the sea breeze filled and got in two good races. Had some issues with anchors not holding, otherwise a great day. Scores are on their way to the web... Mike

The jury decision is that Lars and Philip will both be scored in first place for that race. Results will be updated tomorrow. Mike

Results posted online have not yet been updated/corrected. They were corrected before the awards. Winners: F18: Bob Merrick / Tyler Burd A-Cat: Joe Bello We used up all of the clock to get four solid races for the cats today. The VX Ones elected to stop at three. Mike

Mike On a sail I loaned him so he could race, no less. The kid's good, but don't let him see this or it'll go to his head. "I said, now, I said ,pay attention boy!"
