In this photo the boat with the yellow spinnaker, Sirocco, is in second place behind Wings. They have yet to round the leeward mark while Wings is already half way up the beat. The other boats are further back.

John (holding the "brick") is setting our course for the next mark, Richard (tan ball cap) is tracking the boat to weather of us, calling the tactical situation, Judy is leading the sheet for a spinnaker, (in case we set one), and Pete is trimming the jib, keeping us going during all of this. Fred is steering,


In this shot, in another race, we are quite close to Olas Lindas and in the handicapping they owe us about 6 minutes in this race, so we're actually ahead. All we have to do is hang in there, which we did. Unfortunately Sirocco had gotten by and were far ahead. If we'd pushed a little harder we could have beaten them too, but we hadn't considered them a threat and we failed to cover.

The racing is over and we are happy as we sail home. It is the end of the season and it's been a good year.

This Wednesday, March 13, is our final scheduled sailing day. There isn't really a race but we just wanted to go out. After this any sailing we do is just plain fun; most of the crew won't be here. But on this day we had a blast and ended it up with a Hamburger BBQ back at the dock
