Has it really been 14 days since we started this?
Eprhraim is totally cool so are the adjacent villages of Fish Creek and Sister Bay.
Woke up during the night to breaking waves outside Ryan's cabin and rustling of the leaves. A sure sign of a northerly. Once the sun was up we had confirmation, NW wind mid teens and gusty with plenty of whitecaps. Easy call on sail selection, we were going with the rags. It was really nice to have a good day yesterday so we could totally coast today and not sweat having to get a good finish to qualify. Our housemates, Frank and Maryann Garry made a similar call. No sense in wasting our best sails when they are already too worn compared to many boats here.
WOOO HOOO the spnnnaker runs were way fun! Beats not so much. The swell was nice to catch and plane off for a while. There were three capsizes that we know about but no major bumper boats, so all is good. Only one race today, per the schedule, the rescue squad was a little busy with a couple of boats. Dave had to attend a meeting of the Bigwigs after the race. He came prepared with his laptop, movie, magazine, beer.
Haven't seen results yet, but we weren't steller but it was a blast. More later tonite.
