Sept 18 & 19 was a warm and very windy weekend. No dinghy racing, but a chance to try out Stefan’s Hobie in strong winds, and a time to pull out some of the keelboats in spite of the low water levels.
Lovely September weekend

Sail around the islands
The weather cooperated with gentle winds on Saturday, so a number of members rigged their keel boats, dinghies and cats to do some sailing. We certainly kept our social distance!
We hope that there will be news this Wednesday about changes in the public health restrictions and approval to start organized races. We will see. Stay tuned for an update on plans for next weekend.
Bird’s Eye View of Racing
Thanks to Neill’s drone we have an amazing bird’s eye view of a couple legs from a race on September 5th.
