Fifteen sailors so this is a long story. Michael loves sailing a Laser and Jerry Beck spend an hour or so sailing with him Saturday.

Vince is bouncing between boats. He sailed his MC on Saturday, but they didn’t get a race finished.

Jerry Beck has turned into one of our instructors. Keep coming Jerry.

Bailey Carter is an old friend. Keep coming and hopefully we will get you a better boat.

Patrick is working his way up to the top of the fleet.

Cameron Smith, another old friend, we expect will be sailing with us at least on Saturday.

Rob Just missed Saturday sailing and took a 52 in his score for missing those four races.

Claire is our first woman and the third youth. I hope we get her name in the newspaper again.

Chris sailed in three races and had two seconds. That is really very good. His mother was on the RC. Do you suppose?

Dave Mains is sailing a little better all the time, but this light wind stuff is hard to do.

Mark Solal—look at that second place and a COUPLE OF 5s from our heavy air specialist.

Luke is back sailing with us. Look out, up at the top. The youth are coming.

Tom has climbed into third spot with no really bad finishes.

Rob was gone for a day so Sam was able to get up into second place for the weekend.

Alejandro did it again. Almost a clean sweep of bullets, but Luke took the last race Saturday.
