It was a great Good Bye to Tom Rhodes. He placed second in the Saturday races. Second place in the first race and third in the second including the capsize that got everyone but Bailey in the 4.7. Bailey won that race outright without any time allowance. Then we finished off the cake with the help of others and a dent in the ice-cream. Sat around and talked a little. Looked forward to a little less wind on Sunday. It wasn’t a lot less.


Rob Krentel 1-2+1-2-2-2 =10

Dave Chapin 16+2-1-1-1 =21

Patrick Daniel 3-nf+3-nf =28

Tom Rhodes 2-3+24 =29

Bailey Verkaik 6-1+24 =31

Jerry Beck 5-4+24 =33

Marc Solal 4-nf+ns =36

Vince Renzoni 7-nf+24 =39

Sam Chapin ns+ns =40

Let’s start with Sam. Lots of excuses—cold, windy, old, should be smart enough to rig a radial, glad to see the rest of you at least sailing a little.

Vince has the leak fixed in his boat and has a house in Mt. Dora, so he will be more regular.

Marc was laughing and having fun, so he is fine.

Jerry did a great job sailing both races on Saturday and we are glad to have him coming whenever he can.

Bailey won the Youth 4.7 Championship and then he won the second race outright on Saturday. Great work and it had us all laughing. What a great day!

Tom Rhodes, one of our regulars, passes on his boat and maybe his regular spot to Vince. We will have to see how that turns out.

David we were really happy to see you come and cool off Rob a little while Alejandro was out of the country.

Rob did it again. Set up the course and then when he and David were having their match races they included the Scots windward mark for a gybe mark so it was a triangle course. We can’t do that if we have a lot of boats, but we can spread out the windward marks--- maybe need another course signal—maybe C course= B mark and then A mark and back down wind..
