OPCYC Round the Lights Race

Greg, Dean, Tommy and Joey crewed. Made the right choice on which lighthouse to go to first, but we chose to go inside Hampton Bar- initially it looked like the fastest route since ther would be less current than in he main channel, but the wind died as we approached Middle Ground Light and it died as we attmpted to round the lighthouse, picked back up again right after we rounded, and had good wind going to HRBT island. It started to die as we paased the island and stayed under 7n knots until we arrived at Thimble Shoal Light, where the wind disappeared for half an hour but fortunately we had the current in our favor and rounded that ligjht with no problem and the wind picked p on the final leg going to Mill Creek. We placed 3rd in ORC.
