I was invited by Mike Brannon to crew on Virginia Lee for the Little Creek Sailing Association's Veterans Day Race. We headed out to the race course with plenty of time, but the engine died about 15 minutes before the start. The wind was blowing about 15-20 so it made it a bit challenging to raise both sails when you could not point into the wind. As a result we were a bit late to the start, but we had a fun race, coming in 3rd across the line but 4th in corrected time.
Lots of wind and a fun course. Thanks Mike for inviting me and for serviing our country.
