The crew for today
Spinnaker run into the sunset
SMSA Smith Point Race. A 45nm course down to a mark off Point Lookout and back. A fairly light downwind start quickly shifted & filled in to a great beat all the way to the mark. Conditions slowly built throughout the day culminating in a great spinnaker run back up the Bay and into Solomons. Distance races are always long days on the Barba Roja (this one took about 11 hours) , but we had great food & enjoyable company, and the whole race was some of the best sailing I've done in a while.
