Hello Fleet 20,

Hopefully we’ll get to race again soon but in the meantime WRBC has finished the East pad and it looks awesome!

Jim and I moved our boats over today which appears to be the last decent day for a while, all the bowline ties are installed (thank you Bradley!).

The only thing I felt needed to be changed was the space at the end on the South facing boats (mine’s on the end) to make sure there was enough space to sit for hoisting sails, departing and coming back into the dock. I think I’ve left enough space but it makes it a little tighter for each spot moving down the line.

We also have enough room to leave at least 1 foot between your transom (when tied down) and the end of the dock so that we can walk our boats easily back and forth to the end. Hopefully this Saturday it will warm up enough for racing and moving some or all of the boats over!

One other thing is there wasn’t enough interest in the Laser’s rock the ice regatta so were planning on just having fleet racing on Jan. 27th. 

Hope to see everyone soon on the starting line, 

Your Fleet 20 Captain
