The anticipation is over, we finally completed a race. The first race gave us beautiful weather, but no wind. After it was abandoned, we said how happy we were to be out on the lake on a winter’s day. Then on the second race day, we had nice wind all morning and as the sun came out the nice easterly wind became a very slow westerly and again we said what a nice day to be out on the lake. But as the day got nicer, the challenge was to finish the race within the time limit.
It was a tough day to be race committee and then add the 90 degree shift in wind from skipper’s meeting to start time and we now have a downwind start in a pursuit race. A big thanks to Chris Webster for taking charge of this first pursuit race. This was my first downwind start in a pursuit race and it was a challenge to time this start correctly. It was especially demanding on the spinnaker flyer because she had never been asked to slow the boat down before. A new experience for us all.
