Jon Chapin had an afternoon sailing with his Father and now he is in the mix.  The bottom three on Saturday really had a good work out.

Rob had to do some family things on Sunday, so his missed out on the first or second place for the weekend.

Dave Chapin didn’t come back on Sunday.  Probably couldn’t get young America up in time.

Vince is better and better.  Had a good time on Saturday trading places with the others and
Sunday sailed all the races.  When the wind is up boat handling get more critical.  Lots of practice..

Marc Solal had his wind on Sunday and sailed well.  Needs to handle wins shifts just a little better.

Sam was lucky that it didn’t blow any harder than it did or he would have been out of the whole mess.

All and all a good weekend.  We will be looking forward to nine or ten boats at the races this summer.

Thanks to Joan Bryant and Sally Renzoni for RC work and Jim Lingeman for getting the RC boat steering fixed.
