We snuck this one in just under the wire during a week of gale warnings. Loading the boats was interesting as the small craft advisory was apparently for loading boats on trailers too.
The forecast went from 25kt down to 20, 15, and finally 10kts of wind for Sunday November 8. But in case we forgot it was November, a deluge of rain (not drizzle) reminded us.

The rain did nothing to dampen our spirits and congratulations to all. Mark Miller (single) and later Steve and Buckley (double) all ribboned for third place (woohoo!!). The rest of us settled for a job well done and exceeding our personal bests.

Thank you to everyone and their families who rigged, derigged, drove, organized, carried, filled in during practice, or just got soaked cheering us on and taking pictures. It was great fun!
