CHANGE OF LOGISTICS!

We will all meet at Lewis Wharf on Saturday at 10:30 AM to rig up the boat, off the dock by 11 AM. We will motor directly to the course area so we can sail most of the course before the race to plan out wind angles and sail changes. After the finish, the boat will proceed to the Hull Yacht Club for the post-race party. For anyone who needs to be back in Boston early, the Hull Ferry runs to Long Wharf at 4:20 and 6:20 and takes 35 minutes. Otherwise, the boat will be of the dock from Hull by 7 PM so we can be back to Lewis Wharf some time after 8 PM.

The HUGE post race party includes Dinner, Live Band, Dancing · Awards: Five divisions, 1st – 5th in each division. · Perpetual sailing club team trophy. Bring a sandwich/snacks for lunch before the race. As always, there will be water, Gatorade and Corona on board.

This is a pursuit race, one of three possible courses will be used, the warning signal for the first boat will be no earlier than 12:55 PM,. As of Thursday 9/19 there are 101 boats registers. Of these, 97 boats will start ahead of dopodomani, and 4 boats will start behind us. Our goal is to pass all 97 while keeping the 4 behind us. Good times!!

Comment by Paige:
I can help out on 9/26!
Chris on CYC Weds Night Fall Series Race 5 at 9/14/2020 01:04PM
Comment by Chris:
Correct Sunny, there is no race for us on Sept 30, as Nicole and I will be finishing our packing/moving prep for the North End apartment, and the boat will be ready to get hauled out and transported down to Florida for the winter! So we only have this Weds night race (Sept 16) and next Weds race (Sept 23) left on the schedule

That being said, I anticipate the need to break some of the boat down on the weekend of Sept 26. I'm going to plan on being down to the boat on Sat 9/26 from about 11-3 PM to get her ready for her trip down to Marina Bay to get hauled. Anyone interested in helping out??

Comment by Sunny:
Looks like Weds Sept 30 is unscheduled, so this Weds the 23rd might be our last Rogue race for Boston in 2020...? It's been a fun season (such as it was!)
Chris on Weds Nite Race, Series III Race 6 (CYC) at 10/2/2019 02:20PM
Comment by Chris: It's looking a bit soggy out there tonight, but at least the rain has not killed the breeze and there looks to be 10-15 out of the NE. So dress warmly, bring your foulies, and let's wrap this season up in style! And after the race, there is a Constitution Yacht Club get-together at The Blackmoor, so if anyone is interested in joining me to meet up with the other boats and crews you are more than welcome. See you soon. Z
