As PRO for the club's June CBYRA-sanctioned race, my first chore was find my handheld VHF. Rowed out to RAINBOX and rowed back cursing b/c it was not on board.  Dammit!

Borrowed a radio and got all the boats off by 1615, with a few minor glitz's but no need for the AP.  I love those first few minutes when the last class flag is lowered and it's Oh Beer Thirty.

Of course the wind did an unexpected twirl, almost 180 degrees, prior to sundown and that meant our Green Course Board "T" should have been red. Oh well...

RC boat finally made it back to the club, I have no idea what time it was, but there was no FREAKIN' BACON LEFT!

Zonked out on RAINBOW and woke up wondering where my hangover was.  Somehow I spent the evening relatively sober. There's a lot to be said for Coors Light and Doghead Head Festina Pêche...both measuring in around 4.2 ABV.

A nice two days, despite of all the B.S. in the week prior to the race involving a certain cruising clsss.  But I'll leave that conversation alone.
