After a decent start in light winds that went to nothing about halfway up the first leg, the RC called it. Abandoned...

Events:
Distance or point-to-point race, Single-day regatta
Strong winds and large swells marked this race. Not so much the race itself as after passing Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel it was a spinnaker run to the finish line. But, the trip back was pretty bumpy with gusts to 29 knots and swells at least 5 feet if not higher. It took 4:15 for the racw and 7:28 to sail back to Hampton, fighting an adverse current and beating back to CBBT and Hanmpton.

Events:
Multi-day regatta
Crusing 2 4th overall, 2 days of light air racing marked by 1 abandoned race, 1 heartbreaking TLE where we were less than a boat length from the finish line and there wasn't een a wisp of breeze to get us across the finish line. Still, a great wekend of sailing and (maybe too much) partying.

Disappointed Luna Blu motoring back to port
At 0300, having just rounded York Spit Light, the wind died to zero and forecast indicated that there wouldn't be any wind until 1030, so we retired. Race Committee took a nice pic of us motoring past the finish line headed back to OPCM.
