Fleet Racing in Tampa

A few words from Andy for all you Flying Scot fans!

What a nice day of racing we had!

Twelve, count them, Twelve Scots, out very nice!

Jay Tyson, Dave Bell and Michelle Watts ran 4 super races in a tricky westerly, punctuated by a 12-13k puff righty in the last race.

Team Linton put on a clinic, nearly leading at every mark, BIG thanks to Deano Bell for hooking into the last race righty and making Jeff and Amy work in the last race! Rusty my a__!

Welcome new Scot owner Matt Dalton and Dawn from Apollo Beach, there is another light blue sloop out there! And it was great to have Jim Eagan and Richard up from Sarasota, hope you make this a regular gig!

Not sure if there was any post race debauchery, seemed like Jeff Linton was ready for some, but alas, the ole fleet captain was on call and had to bolt, BUMMER!

Let's keep this rolling, next race is June 21st, (a non call weekend!) 1500 start, (going to back the start up a hour in hopes for more breeze). The Hayward's are Race Committee, will take some help if offered!
