Race Week!

Last week was race week. We woke Tuesday to blue sky and light winds. It was a beautiful sight in Smith Cove as the early morning sun shed light on the windjammer fleet.

The race was off to a slow start due to light winds ... was there any wind at all?? The southerly breeze finally filled in after lunch (having salad often helps bring up the wind). The race course had to be shortened a bit due to light air at the start.

We duked it out in the leeward class with the Heritage and the Nathanial Bowditch. We were fortunate to cross the starting line with little wind against the tide. Crossing the finish line we were first in our class. We will hang on to the trophy for a while, we will see what next year brings us. Every boat has it's day....
