Another nice day with a few cool new faces. 6 boats sailing, one on the dock, but again there is a lot of talk on who is going in when....

1st place was a two way tie, as was third place, making the top 4 within 4 points after 4 races! In the end it was Chris Fields and crew talking the overall day with a strong finish in the last race to beat the Orkney/Flack/Maxwell team in a tie breaker. It should be noted that he went from 5th to 1st at the last mark rounding, and by holding on to that 1st he moved up from 4th to 1st for the day. Congrats Chris and crew!

In the third race we had 4 boats finish within 2 seconds! The fleet is really getting better every week. Most boats found one bad set (meaning the chute was up 5 seconds late) would cost them TWO places! Overlaps were the norm, and clear lanes were hard to come by.

Hop on a J-22 and come play. We have four new teams looking to buy boats, and this fleet is really attracting some great local talent. See you next Sunday!

PS.... Do not forget the mid summer regatta is Sunday July 29th with a 10 AM start... That is just three Sundays away!

PSS..... There are new sailing instructions posted effective next week. Download them on the main page.
