An interesting weather day. Good breezes through the first 6 races but during the break the pond became like a mirror, so much so that there was talk of ending things but after an extended break ( Alain’s wife ordered Domino’s pondside which arrived late) and before the start of race seven the breeze pickedContinue reading “V-36 9/5/2026”

The weather forecast was mid 70’s with a 5 mph breeze. Well, the temperature was right but the breeze waffled between strong and nonexistent favoring nonexistent.
