Hugh Kennedy night race






Norm, Chris and I took on the last Wednesday night race - the Hugh Kennedy race.

I helmed.  We started downwind with an east wind.  Great start. We headed to the downwind mark and returned closed haul to a mark near the church and then through the Gut to finish at AS15. Only Limonchello came in behind us but we owed her some time.

Club did not know there was a race so there was no BBQ and we went to Burger Town for some nice burgers.

Too bad I still have to spend my MMA for September.

Very nice race in the dark.  Downwind start has interesting dynamics.
