Flying Scot Masters Championship - Sunday

Last Day:

53 degrees this morning, BRRRRRR - forecast has warming up to 77.
Wind forecast was NE 12 shifting to E at 9. But they were WRONG.

Sailed out in shorts and a long sleeve T-shirt. Bad Idea. Half way out to the course wind went right and built to 15. That first wave was no fun.

Race 3 WLWLW:
Dad had a great start. We looked good until the wind picked up just a little more, fast on starboard but slow slow slow on port. Watched Al, Ron, and the Blue boat cruise away. We were left to battle it out with the rest of the fleet. From our vantage point it look like those 3 had a great battle with Al coming out on top. Dad and I - not so good, finished 6th in the race.


Congrats to Al and Jeff.

One thing I forgot - our fleet managed to pound through about 10 dozen raw oysters one night. Love that native cuisine.
