Hello Weds Nite Racers.
Can you believe it’s the second-to-last Weds Nite race of the year? No, neither can I! We have a full boat tomorrow night with 9 scheduled and with 2 “standby” racers (Kyrre and Sal) in case anyone can’t make it out. If it looks like you have to bail, reach out to either of them directly to fill in for you, the earlier in the day the better.
Assuming you can make it out, it appears we have another lovely evening in store. Forecast calls for a high of 74 during the day and sunny, with temps dropping into the low 60s overnight. No rain is in the forecast as of now, and 5-10 knots from somewhere Southish is likely. Low tide is at 2:42 PM, so it will be flooding all race long, and sunset is at 6:38, which is 3 minutes BEFORE our scheduled start…egads!!
We’re locked in a tight battle with Lance for 1st place in the 3rd series (after winning 1st in series 1 & 2) and need one more finish ahead of RockIt to lock in the win…so let’s get it done tomorrow night, OK??
See you then.

Hello all,
Well, a few changes to tonight’s roster (with Paige and Anders unable to sail but Sal joining us) has us a usual crew of 8 with a few people swapping positions. Tom moves from jib to main, Jackson from mast to jib, and Sunny from midmast to mast with Sal sliding into midmast.
It is gorgeous out on the harbor right now, sunny and warm(ish) with 10-15 out of the NW…fingers crossed that breeze holds long enough to get a race in. See you all soon!
