Default The Un-Wind

Yesterday was the most windless day I've ever seen. I saw reports of a
few knots but no one could sail at all. We tried for about an hour and
half before crying our way home. Drifting by other boats did allow for
some odd photo's though!

The Harvest Moon Regetta was a bust here as well. 2 kt winds, picked
up a bit the died off, Most gave up and motored to the party. 150 miles
offshore with no wind makes for a long race. A New York 36 won...go
figure a tender LIS Boat has a purpose after all.
