Fall Series J/70 race

Only one race on Saturday :( .  The wind crapped out on the last leg, and we were far enough back that it really impacted us.    We (Donna, Jamey, Eric and I)  led the fleet on the first two legs, but completely fell apart after fouling Mark Hillman's boat.  Went from 2nd at that point, to 2nd from last.

Sunday was much better.  Three races in: placed 2nd and 3rd first two races, but was OCS and fouled VooDeax, pushing us back to 4th.  

Overall we were 3rd for the series!!

Congratulations to Progress and Hillman Capital on their 1st and 2nd placings.  

And a special thanks to Fast Company for the drive-by shout out!  

Looking forward to the Fall Brawl!

Just out for a sail with Ian and Henry!

Donna and I had the opportunity to take Ian M and his son Henry out for a sail. Ian is the Annapolis Sailing School Director of Instruction and the Keel Boat Club.  His guidance and instruction have been pivitol in our development as sailors.    Turned out to be an excellent day!  7- 10 knots, perfect for a brisk downwind reach!

Looking forward to having them on again!

Annapolis Thursday Night Races- Last race of the season

For our first year of racing a J/70, and our 3rd year racing, I'd say we did pretty good.10th out of 24th for the second series, and 13th out of 24th for the overall series.   This doesnt reflect that rarely more than 15 boats competed on any given night, but still...not bad!   Our performance on this night was a stinker though.  We came in last (12th) :( ....The night was great though, and J-World had a good turnout at the after-race party.  Can't wait till next year!

Thank You J-World, the RC members and T2TPV for making it a fantastic year of racing!!!

Annapolis WNRs aboard SLY

Second time out on SLY. The race started out well, but the wind made an exit just after we turned the windward mark.  Afterwards was the season-ends party at AYC. Fun was had by all!

Double handing Celerity on a beautiful sailing day!

Jamey and I took Celerity out and tracked the Solings and Daysailers during their regatta. What a fantastic day!
