I'm off to sail with a few pretty ladies!

I hope the wind is less crazed today....one of the gals is my ex-girlfriend
from years ago and not used to boats.

Hope the rest of you get out there!

It was NUTS. 12 knots near city Island only up to 17 near Execution Rocks,
then, passing Stepping Stone, gusts to 30 knots and more as we approached the
Throgsneck. We watched as a unreefed Columbia 28 nearly got knocked down. Then
again, my friend was having a blast on his J24 with a full main and the little
blade. Too many people on my boat for it to be worthwhile. Today will be
better.

Too much wind for my boat for it to be worthwhile.
Today I will be bitter.

12 to 17 is nuts? We had races in 20 to 25 knots. The Hobie 33s
loved it.





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

Learn to read "Shampane" man!!!
I said gusts over 30 knots and I had children and an elderly person on board.
Horvath, you're an Idiot!

I guess if you're riding in a broken down dinghy, like that tub you
own, you'd be a little concerned.


As soon as my showfer wakes up, I'll have her drive me to the yacht
club, where we will have a shampane breakfast.

Our first race of the season (and my first yacht race) was in winds of 29-45
knots, and most of the crew were scratch. We took line honours, and missed
1st by 40sec on handicap. Full main, no2 jib, and the spinnaker on the first
downwind leg.

Yeah, but you didn't have a crowded boat with a few folks who never sailed
before, including two children and a guy in his 80s. 30 knots aint the best for
that.
