SMSA Wednesday Night Series A-6. An interesting course and lots of action, including a late start, a close crossing and a marginal staysail leg. Our esteemed foredeck finally got back from his extended work trip to the desert so we gave him something to do by putting up both of our running kites for 2 different legs. Still working on getting some new crew up to speed. Took second & hoping for a strong finish next week to round out the series. A friend brought his J/33 out racing for the first time this season and managed a solid showing in non-spin class.
