Back in front! We had a great day with a 4, 1 and are now back in the lead of the Star North American Championship. Two more races will be sailed tomorrow on the San Francisco City Front course. The wind was late in arriving again today but we got race number 3 off around […]
Tough day for sailing on San Francisco Bay. The wind did not cooperate for until abou 1400 today and then is was on the light side. However, this coupled with a realively weak current made for the most “open course” racing that you can have on SF Bay. Normally, racing on San Francisco Bay, expecially […]
We started out the Star North American Championship with a bang…a gun acutally. We won the first race which was held on the Berkeley Circle Race course in 12-16 knots of wind. 40 Stars were on the line for the only race of the day which got under way about 14:45. We will race six […]
The best way to classify the ISAF World Championships is to say that it is a festival of sailing. 11 regattas going on at the same venue at the same time, 2000 sailors, 6 racecourses, it is a great display of our sport. For the purpose of exposing the sport through media, this is a […]
The medal ceremony, last night, was special. It is the music, the pace and formality medals to the presenter on a silver platter, the way they announce the names and their countries, and the raising of the flags and finally the applause
Would of, could of, should of. We got the Silver. Not bad. Saving some improvement for next year. The day started out with us in fourth, 5 points out of first. We knew it would be all on today because of the caliber of the competition and the conditions. It was too light to race […]
God likes us. Nothing bad happened to us before the start, we had a good start sailed well on the first lap and rounded the first downwind mark in 5 th . Then, the wind started getting weird. First it was our turn to loose a bunch. People on all sides of us had a […]
One race today and we treaded water. Actually we did close in quite a bit on the guys in front of us, finishing 4 points out of 6th but not enough to pass them. The race got started in 7 knots of wind from 290 at 1430. We had a bad start in that a […]
We had a terrible day. But somehow, we are still in fourth place,,, 9 points out of first. It started by me having the stomach flew. We all know what that entails so I wont go into the gory details. Needless to say, I wasn’t feeling my best. Next, we realize that the mainsail is […]
Sailing is a beautifully sport some days. Today was one for us. We got a third and moved ourselves up into 8th over all. We were scheduled to start at 1500 after the Tornados but at 1500 the Tornados still had not raced. Nada Vento on the Charlie course today and very little wind anywhere […]
