FFR

Rachael, Scarlett, Marie Claude, and Christine came out for the FFR with little hope for wind.  

It had been windless for a couple of days and it looked dismal, but 12 boats came out. The race was called off at 18h45.  Marie Claude and I went for a swim in 23-degree waters.

Five minutes later, the winds came up and we had great sailing.  Redline passed us.

We sailed back to the club at 20h00 and had a nice supper with nice company until 23h20.
