Last weekend marked the beginning of our racing season with races number 1&2 of the Icebreaker series... and what a weekend! 77 degrees and 12-20 knots of wind out of the SE to S! Thanks to Mark Hobbs and the crew of Valhalla for serving as Race Committee. And a big thanks to Bill Nichols and Gary Witt for getting the Whaler ready for action as the chase boat!
As for the racing, in Spinnaker fleet top honors for the day went to Second Star; in cruising fleet Trust and Terra Nova split the races and Southern Cross took both races in the Leisure fleet.
But, the sailboat racing was just a warm up for the Ladies Soup competition on Saturday night! Gayle Witt took top honors for the night, but all the soups were great!
Beers on the deck of the clubhouse, at 9pm on a Saturday in February, in short sleeves... It doesn't get much better than that!
