I just want to acknowledge the hard work of not just Dan and me but also Sugar Flanagan, Sean Rankins and a veritable army of willing folks who helped us host this event. Special thanks to Chris and Kathy Grace for providing a perfect Race Committee platform in their trawler, Petrel! Also, thanks to Jeff Gibbons, whom I forgot to acknowledge at the awards gathering. He provided expert IT support for tabulating the race results. More to come soon about the event.

Really smooth and quick. Looks like he trips the mast, then the guy, then makes the new guy and finally the mast again. One thing I wonder about -- how does he grab the new guy so easily and reliably every time; it always seems to be flying two feet out of reach when I'm up there... cheers, Lynn I like it!

Why aren't we listed as a sponsor of the sailing team? If there's one organization in town we should support, the sailing team is it.
