Only two skippers were present due to an event at another venue. What we laughingly called a breeze was about all we experienced as we still sailed for a time. Two light sprinkles also occurred during sailing time. The author’s new boat, acquired from Paul Mercer ( and earlier Rick Laird) really wasn’t tested withContinue reading “EC-12 Postponed due to lack of participation.”

After a late start due to someone figuring that the start time was the time to start assembling his boat and NOT when racing was supposed to begin whose name will not be revealed, a shortened schedule of eight races was accomplished in the allotted time frame. Light conditions were again the order of theContinue reading “VM#2 7/27/2024”

An early start still attracted four skippers however Alain’s boat never hit the water due to a malfunctioning winch. Unfortunately, the malady was catchy as Chris’s winch also died causing Chris to miss two starts while replacing it. On the water, very light fluky breezes were the order of the day. After a half hourContinue reading “V36#2 7/27/2024”

NO SAILING 7/20, V36#2 Moved to 7/27@10:00, V36#3 8/10@10:00 See the schedule for the changes.

Chris made a gutsy call on suspect weather ( Don’t you just love weathermen? ) which turned out to be the correct one with gradually clearing skies throughout the regatta.

Heading says it all unfortunately.

It was decided that rather than running the 4th Annual V36 regatta, which will be rescheduled-probably in October, we would run the postponed V36#2. Four skippers completed a full 12 race schedule finishing just as some very serious rain began. Missing was Alain Jousse who, as I was told, found that deer crossing the highwayContinue reading “V36#2 3/22/2024”

Start time for all series regattas has been changed from 1:00 to 12:00 as noted on our modified Facebook schedule page. This does not affect special regattas.

The second regatta of the doubleheader ran from 1:00 to a bit before 3:00. Rick Gates graciously allowed Herb to sail his boat as Herb’s was sidelined. This allowed Rick to kibitz from the sidelines better ( Chuckle). Wind conditions were no better than in the morning but I’m currently at a loss for moreContinue reading “VM #2 5/25/2024”
