We met, we ate, and although there wasn’t a whole lot of wind, we improvised with a LeMans Style start .. The Dinghy’s went over to Peninisula and back to the dock and the Cruisers tried to make it around the island and back to the dock.. We had a Photo finish with Rob Hatcher snatching defeat from the jaws of victory ( Dr. Sunfish Barry Sanders) and a virtual tie via motor startupery for the Cruisers with Kevin Klarer edging out Lee Huddleston.. Thanks to all those brave souls who came out and competed…
Urgent Update…from Commodore Reimer! Water rising at POYC and unless you plan to race Saturday we recommend removing boats from dock to keep pressure off the swing arm anchors…looks like we may have a race window after morning and before late afternoon rains, so plan on attending…also we will need a count for our BBQ dinner before finalizing our purchases in the early am Saturday…email should go out to advise those that don’t use Facebook…look forward to seeing a big crowd to celebrate the Fourth… Gary
