Heating up Lake Eustis

The Scot gang over at Lake Eustis had a pretty busy September with multiple race days. Unlike the other fleets in FL their fleet racing is both Saturday and Sunday, instead of just one day. Good to see them back at it after the summer recess, though September in inland FL is still HOT. Think Orlando.

From George;

Here are the results for the first two weekends of club racing at Lake Eustis (September 11 and 12 and September 25 and 26). Welcome back to everyone, and special greetings to Ed Beuapre and Terry Thompson on 5239, who recently joined our fleet, and to Ron and Peggy Stevenot on 3221, who sailed with us once last season but who (we hope) will join us frequently this year.

The next racing weekend is two weekends away, October 9 and 10. Hope to see everyone then!

Tampa Fleet Racing / Labor Day

Here is Andy's account of the day;

We had a bit of everything this Saturday, starting with a early calm, rain during rigging, and finally a nice 10-12k seabreeze under bright sunny skies.
7 boats made it out and enjoyed 4 nice races thanks to Matt and Dawn on Conga Rats. Thanks to the RC for watching the young Haywards!
It was nice to have Jason Chavez join us sailing with Keith Lockey, these guys were tough on the starting line!
Racing was extremely close, and the shortish races made boat handling critical.
Paul Silvernail and Leslie Fisher, Mark Taylor and Tina Tinaret, Andy and Lisa Hayward, Dave and Kim Thinel, Al Thompson and Eric, Dean Bell and Cameron Salmon, Keith Lockey and Jason Chavez finished in that order.
Cam owes Dean a new forestay as his ab blasting mega hiking blew it up in the last race, (they where leading)!
All the happening cool people frolicked in the pool and grilled out after the races, thanks to all for the yummy snacks!
Our next event is going to be a Pre Wife Husband practice day, date TBD, but late September. If you plan on going up to Lake Norman, you need to sail one more time prior to hitting the road!
