Headed out into expected thunderstorms, but no lightning all evening at all, and only a bit of rain. Wind from the East in the 10-15 knot range, and had 11 boats come out to race. Arrived on-station at 5:30 for a 6:15 start and decided on a course starting at Race Mark V so we could go upwind to either B or N, but found that Mark V was not there. Drove powerboat back home to get an anchor and a large fender and raced back to the Mark V area, and then placed it in the correct lat/long coordinates. And got race off on-time! Squall came through after the starting sequence, but only ended up being light rain for about 15 minutes and then it was over. Everyone finished the race, which has been ususual so far this year -- part of the reason was that the wind built during the race vs. died, as usually happens. Quite a night, especially when arrived home and found boat lift didn't work -- power was out at home.
