No Boat..Yet: No Wind
Lake sail racing in the summer can really be hit or miss. Well we missed the air by 24 hrs. Tues the wind would not stop. Day of the race nothing doing. Was on a new boat this week. A Pearson Flyer. Older boat with some querks, but it floats and has sails. El Capitain was also new to the boat. At the start, there was still some wind. Enough wind that we were able to be the first over the line...unfortunatly a second to early. We come about and try it again. Now it is a challenge. We get to catch all the other boats. Then the wind dies. Shortly after the race is called due to lack of wind. Good thing for everyone else, we were going to come from behind...really. So the wind died, and so did our diesel motor. Got a tow from another pearson. Hears to next week. Full Story »
