Fleet Race January 25,2015

     Yesterday Gulf Races were canceled because of 20-30 knot winds and 4-6 foot seas .  Today we managed to get in two races in 3-6 maybe a gust to 7.  We did have beautiful blue skies and temperatures in the high 60's.  Bob Morris, Bruce and Andy were in shorts. 
The Ninja Sailor

Lil was in shorts too.  Nice tats.

Not just anyone can pull this outfit off.

Bob Morris always ready to sail.

Keep those feet dry.

Stu and Andy all ready except for lunch.



     We had 5 boats on the starting line today.  The wind was light and fluky but a long windward leeward course was set and we struggled to finish 2 x's around.  We did another race and shortened it to one time around.  Those light days are the hardest.
Janet is on the helm today while Bruce crews. 
It was hard to keep the spinakers full in this light stuff
Oops
"Starboard" hails the blue boat
Looks like their could be a protest coming.  To be discussed!
Hmmm.
Another hmmm.
What are you two looking at?
