Wednesday evening beer can race. We didnt win, however i was happy with our performance. a boat that has walked away from us all year, couldnt shake us and we bet them to the windward mark on both laps! the downwind legs we had to go non-spin,I didnt have a fordeck crew member, and wanted toi go easy on the boat. Screwpile is only a week away!
