      Long term forecast is not exactly looking like a thrill ride.

        The real question will be who is going to take our crew back to GH, so we can get back to the locks in the shortest time!

          Drop em off at Southworth and they can take Joe Metro back to GH...

            Kotuku is heading down. We like this race, in spite of the forecast. How bad is the moorage situation going to be?

              Looks like my ride is selling, I'll have to dig the Moore out and do the snowbird Saturday....

                Well? I hear it finished at the north end of colvos. Any good stories?

                  Not much, just a long slow day on the water. VERY glad they ended it where they did though.

                    Solved the end of race dilemna. Big thanks to Paul and the Car for a ride back to the Harbor. Painful slow day, but a good time. Flash got a new tactician. Yahya flew in from Oman or Dubai or something like that to show us the way. After two weekends of losing to Car, we got healthy (lucky?). I'm still trying to figure out his explanation of how to read the rotation of logs in Colvos.

                    See you all next week for the end of Center Sound.

                      Nice Sunny day on the water. I think most did not quit because it was so nice and warm. Glad I wore shorts....

                        Ok... now my rant.

                        Why the hell do we do the islands race? It has got to be the most boring race of the year. Why don't we sail south through the bridge like the old days? If I can see Seattle it is not South Sound! Isn't this called the South Sound Series. If current is the problem then switch up the weekends of the four. Seems like there is no reason that we would have to start the series with Winter Vashon? Seems like change might be a good thing....

                        Short rant.

                          I've never done this race - but I have noticed that often racers don't show up only for perfect sailing conditions. Often, holes, current and reachy courses can bring out a huge fleet....
