The breeze was blowing from the north around 7-10 knots when the racestarted at 1000! Usually there is little to no wind in late August.

Beautiful even for the city's 274th Birthday celebrations. Only drawback was "boombox power boats" playing loud and mindless music which could be heard over the fireworks!

A rare reach/reach four lap drag race powered by and easterly 6 to 9 knot breeze. By DISC standards there was some congestion during the first couple of turns. Enjoyed a delightful post-race party.
