As luck would have it, the wind was pretty close to perfect, from the SSE at 10-20 mph.  The previous weekend the poor Flying Scots didn't get a single race in with some flooding of the docks and then zero wind. Regattas get planned in advance and then we just take what comes. We got lucky this year though it could have been just a bit lighter for some (me included). Everyone who sailed all the races remarked that they had gotten quite a work-out. And Nancy wisely added crew for the 2nd day. I would have too if I could have found someone!

The Flying Scots did a great job of managing the race course and even helping out with the food. Thank you Nina and Melissa.  We felt like we got the A+ team with all the talented sailors helping out on the course and in the rescue boats. And special thanks to PRO-Mark Smith. Great job!

Thanks very much to Bowman for all the delicious food! You are one talented lady and sailor too! We know you're out on the Scot but we hope to see you back on your Butterfly sometime soon.

Thanks to Brad for the t-shirts, Melissa and Bruce for the photos, Frank for all he does behind the scenes, and Tom for getting our very nice trophies.

Additional notes from Race Chair Jim:  Thanks to all who organized, volunteered for, and raced in the Wrangle last weekend.  We managed to sail a complete, seven race series. The wind and waves added extra challenges for the hardy competitors.  It was remarkable for the very  low number of capsizes.  Congrats to the "Wrangle Survivors."  And, many thanks to the Scot fleet, who served as race committee!

Nice trophies!
