Strathcona with Norm and Maud

Scarlett came down with COVID and we declined to have her sail with us. So it was only me, Norm and Maud.

Winds were forecasted from the North so we decided to sail White Sail.  The race was mostly a reach with a small upwind leg. Winds did vary a fair bit.

We kept up with Slow Dancer II for a while until we got to Dowkers and then we fell behind.  


We came out 7 out of 14 with four boats DNF.

I am hearing we needed more rail meat.







After the race, Flirtation hit me ... again
