Anyone else's left foot get a workout last night? Idk about y'all but I was having to change gears left and right. Clutch in, clutch out, clutch in, clutch out. Felt like I was in stop and go traffic in an old school muscle car. Lemme tell ya, I stalled it a few times.
The breeze was shifty and puffy but it was more than welcome after our week off last time out! I know Dana did her wind dance, and it seems like everyone else's prayers were answered. However, Dana didn't do her moon dance and we had to break out the running lights early to do the cloud cover. Nonetheless there's something quite serene about the soft glow of green or red on the corner of the headsail that I missed. Kinda crazy that we've had the wind and clear skies to keep the lights off until now! So big thanks to the RC team led by Dana Stewart and Spencer Gay for the appropriately long course to satisfy all of our withdrawals from last week. It's awesome to maximize our time on the water and in the breeze. Dana and Spencer were assisted by Heather Temske, Betsy Culler, Jill Mashburn, Teryl Worster, Erich Worster, Ryan Jones, Corey Jones, and Norm Barnes. We also need to thank Jill Mashburn, Irene Petrie, Debbie Stewart, and Bea Terrell for a fantastic dinner! Don't miss out on the last race of series 2 next week! Yep, that's right! It's time to crunch the numbers and see who you need to cover to protect your position. For most of you, that's going to be pretty tough though... There's a lot of boats to cover! A bunch of boats are within 1 point of each other and with another drop coming available next week, there's a whole lot of math to be done. In Low cruiser, watchout for Bob Morris making waves on his hot new boat and trying to track down Randy and the MusiCAL Harmony crew in 4th. Keep an eye on the battle for 2nd in the high cruiser fleet, Sails Call and Slainte have been trading blows all series. In the Melges fleet, Mike Krantz would swing some big points with another drop... He's chasing both Tonys right now, but they could be chasing him next week! Large Sportboat has three boats that might be in with a shot (honestly I gotta look some stuff up to make sure I get that math right and my brain can't do it right now). In Mid PHRF, We need a tiebreaker race to settle 4th place with Juergen Haeberle and Kurt Stadele. If the Your Move crew doesn't pay attention to their moves though, they could lose out to both of them! (A Bullet for Jurgen, a Second for Kurt, and a 5th for David would put them in a 3 way tie) In the J24 fleet, the Hawkeye crew and the Cinderella team will be duking it out over second. With another drop, Cinderella would actually have 1 point to give. In High PHRF, the Strega team could catch solo sailor Bo with a bullet next week, and if they sail like they did at the last LARC race, well Bo better bring his A game. TLDR, don't miss out on next week's race! You never know what could happen.... As always, let me know if there's any corrections. See y'all next week! - Kyle __________________________________________________________________ Comments are closed.
