I was PRO for the club's annual mOOnLIght race, fun event that ends in a big breakfast party at PSA.
I knew we were going to lose breeze, so we set a course that would be easy to shorten. And once again, we went up to CBYRA mark "J" and put up the S flag. We could see boats not moving over there off Swan Point Bar. We even talked about the dreaded N flag.
But then - whodathunkit - completely unfoercasted, a breeze line appeared to the south and 15 minutes later we had a beautiful 6-8 knot southerly, allowing all 18 boats to finish...well, the ones who hadn't already retired.
There is a god!
We didn't tie up until Sometime Around Midnight (T.A.T.E. reference for anyone listening in 2007) and I finally trashed out in the RAINBOW motel around 1:30 or so. I'm embarassed to say, I still have not sailed this brilliant little yatchett, but my it does sleep a Party of 1 quite nicely!
Great weekend on the water!
