2022 July Long Weekend

We were finally able to start the dinghy racing series, with sunny but cool weather and cold water. Light, shifty, and finally no breezes on Saturday, better wind on Sunday. Good to be out there again!

Thanks to Brian for running the races on Sunday.

Windy Weekend

Very windy both Saturday and Sunday, but the weather was much drier than forecast. Possibly because of the forecast, not much of a turn out for open house day, and rough conditions for taking people out for a sail, but we managed to give a few people a thrilling sailing experience.

On shore hospitality was awesome, thanks to Debbie and Brian Woods.

Saturday BBQ was also delightful, with a workable combination of wind and mosquitoes! Great chance to visit, good food, and excellent atmosphere.

The keel boat race on Sunday had to be cancelled because winds were gusting over 20 knots.

Hopefully next Friday, Canada Day, weather conditions will allow us to run the first dinghy race.

June 18 & 19 Weekend

Well, there was wind. Lots of it. Too cold on Saturday, but Sunday’s warm south winds gusting to 20 knots and over 30 degrees attracted a few sailors; Garth, Stefan, Evan and a friend of his. No racing, but exciting sailing. Never too hot to go sailing!

Sept 12 2021 Racing

Light winds from the Northwest dwindled to nothing by the end of our second race, testing the light wind abilities of the fleet.

Keelboat Race September 11

Brisk winds from the Northwest made the keelboat race challenging and exciting. Lots of members got out on the water to enjoy the event, and the BBQ after.

Sunday, Sept 5 2021

Another cool and variable day, but winds settled down from the strong morning gusts, so we set a course and completed four races in a mix of light to brisk winds.
