Family sailing since 1963
We went out in inclement weather, with occasional gusty breezes from WSW. The sun broke through the clouds after the first couple races. Three boats out, keen to have four races.

Hot day, with just enough wind to hold three races. Some frustrating moments getting around the windward mark.
Congratulations to Cindy, who won the second race.

Once again, fiddly winds, but 5 Laser radials on the start line. As everyone was in the same class of boat, no handicaps to calculate!

Nine boats on the start line, ready for action. The wind was less enthusiastic. On occasion it blew gently from the west, but every once and a while it quit!
Results for the day:
First; Dave Langdon, Second Roger Redwin, Third Patti Cohen
Thanks to Deb Woods for organizing an excellent BBQ in the evening.

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.

Weather permitting, we will try to run the first dinghy races of the year on Canada Day Friday. Have your boat ready by 1 pm.
It’s forecast to be a hot weekend. Never too hot to go sailing.
The keel boat race is cancelled for Saturday, as several boats aren’t ready to launch.
Instead, we will start the dinghy racing series. Come prepared for warm air and cold water, and lots of fun both Saturday and Sunday.
Light winds from the Northwest dwindled to nothing by the end of our second race, testing the light wind abilities of the fleet.
