Friday Fun Race and Dowkers with full moon.

Daniele was managing the school buses and it was an absolute mess.  She picked me up late and was stressed.  We went to IGA and got a nice 1 LB bavette steak for Dowkers during the full moon.

When we got to the boat, and there was some confusion about who Jimmy was sailing with. He went out with Chris and Alain and Ginger.

Daniele and I took off early and had a fairly good sail.  The police were watching the start from afar.

Daniele took the helm and I did the rest.  We came in 14th out of 17th. No way as good as we did last Wednesday













After the race, we sailed to Dowkers, anchored and re-anchored as the anchor failed the drag test.

We had a loose wire with the starboard (green) navigation light.  The police were still flashing their blue lights in the lake.

We ate and crashed.  No bugs.

Next morning we got up at 9:30.  We tested the anchor with the motor at 2200 RPM and it not not move.  We motored back to wash the boat for the MacAulan cup with Alan and Marie.
