Keel Boats Sunday September 8th

It looked like we had some wind for keel boat sailing, but it was not consistent, so at times the boats stopped moving. Eventually we all made it over the finish line.

Monday September 2

Another warm, windy day. Winds predominantly from the North. We set a course with a reach mark, so we enjoyed some high speed reaching. Thanks again to Deb for running the races.

Conditions were favourable for a scheduled keel boat race for the first time this year, so we took full advantage and ran four races. Since Deb and Maureen volunteered to run the races from the committee boat, dinghy sailors were also able race with a separate start.

Winds were reasonably brisk from the north, north-west, which kept all the boats moving nicely.
