This regatta is a tradition at DIYC and is one of the bigger events they host. We were off doing the family thing so no sailing for us. There was a nice little Scot fleet of 12 boats on hand which is about the norm for this event.
The Lintons picked up where they left off in Sarasota, running a streak of bullets! Robby Brown was a solid second and Paul Silvernail was third.
I hear the conditions were fairly nice most of the time, starting out cool but warming up nicely and reasonable breeze. Here are the results;

Nice to see Tom and Ray over from the Lake Eustis fleet. Would have been cool to see some of the Sarasota fleet but they had their own racing going on at the Squadron. All Good!
We will soon be getting ready to leave for Jacksonville and the Gator Bowl this coming weekend, Dec. 4 and 5. Hope to see many of you in Jax.

FLorida District in Sarasota
The second stop on the district tour was in Sunny Sarasota. Twenty seven skippers attended and enjoyed nearly perfect conditions. I failed to get any photos but here is a wind graph for saturday showing a nice afternoon sea breeze;
We started at 12:30 and sailed three races saturday with the result being a tightly packed bunch, aside from the Lintons who were cruising with three bullets!
Here is Sundays graph;
We started at 10:30 in a light easterly but as the lead boats approached the weather mark the wind vanished. As is normal with an abandonement nearly everyone was leading the race!
The transition to sea breeze was slow (as the graph shows) but around 1-ish we got going again and had nice conditions for the Lintons to grab two more bullets. Marshall Pardey was going strong as well and finished with a solid second. We were ocs in the last race and finished tenth (I think), Chris Morgan had one too so that was costly.
Awesome job by the volunteers led by Charlie Clifton, PRO and Chuck Tanner, Regatta Chair. I'll add a link to results when they are up.
Next up is Jacksonville, December 4 and 5, here is a link to the Rudder Club website; http://www.rudderclub.com/ . Lets Go!
