Wednesday Night Series 2 Race 8, August 18 2021

Overall Results Week ( 2 - 8 )

Did you bring your bathing suit?  This was the night for all our cute bikini-wearing sailors to strut their stuff.   The most common sight this evening was all the people in the water floating behind their boats.   Life jackets have a variety of uses.
 
I brought foul weather gear but no bathing suit (ha, what was I thinking!).  Race committee of Mike Iuvone, Paul Stouffer, Pat Finnick and Daniel Postel searched diligently for the wind.   I even thought I heard some change being thrown into the water in eager hopes of appeasing the wind gods this evening.  It was fortunate that most of the bad weather associated with Hurricane Fred had quickly traveled past us Wednesday morning.  But all that it left was no wind and hot, humid temperatures.  We all gave our motors a workout this evening, waiting for something to happen.  But we were disappointed again this week.  
 
Two more races to go and next week we will have dinner.  Our culinary specialist, Will Brown, will be preparing tacos and fixings for dinner with a pan of chicken tetrazzini for those that loved the last dinner.
