Rain was forecast, and came, but lightning was not, so we went out to race. Rain started before our pre-start, and by the time we got to the windward mark, we were soaked. Through. Our shoes squished. But we were having a great race, beating boats in our start to the mark by having a great start and heading down the eastern side of Round Bay. Still ahead of a good number of competitors and about 1/3 of the way back to the finish when RC called off the race -- said the winds were too high.
