We have an open date on the calendar because the U of I regatta was moved to another location.

This is an opportunity to try something new and fun.

We will be having a relay race of probably 2 teams.

Teams will be made up of a group of boats with a similar Portsmouth handicap total.
for example team 1 may have (a thistle, scot, and Capri22) team two may have (a thistle, laser and Hunter 260)

Every boat has a Portsmouth handicap rating, so there are endless combinations to equalize the teams.

A triangle race has been added to the schedule on Sunday September 11 to replace the Hydroplane races that were canceled.

Rookie Mistakes

Emory Luth and I decided to take Wind Talker (Flying Scot 5631) out this Sunday for the triangle races at the last minute. We arrived at 12:30 for a 1pm start so it was seriously last minute. I have been sailing for a year now and Emory is was introduced to sailing at the tail end of last sailing season. Without much experience in the boat, I assumed that we were going to learn a thing or two...and I was right.

I was pleased with our performance but there were several of those "learning moments" that I thought would be worth sharing:
