Thanks to all the race committee and SSS organizers for this years fiasco!

It was a beautiful day. I've posted some pictures here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/UV5hf4sBV144o8ji9

Made it around Red Rock before dropping out of the race.

Hope Take Five's rigging is OK. I circled back to make sure everyone aboard was OK when his forestay popped and sail went in the water.

Cheers,

Matt Beall
 
Matt! It is great to have you back on the bay! And what a lot of nice photos. It seems maybe that you had forgotten how lovely it is out there at daylight and sunset. So here you are, sailing with us again.

Thank you to the race Committee. After retiring I tied up at GGYC and went up to the deck to watch the Race Committee in action, trying to finish at least sixty fast-is-fun boats within the space of 20 minutes. Great fun, as always. Jim Vickers, Kristen and the others were dialed in.
 
After a bluidy cold motor up to TI from Coyote Point, I woke up on Saturday to this:

The Doublehanded Sailing Society gets ample coverage. SA, PD, & L38 only mention doublehanders. Might as well change the name to the DHSS.

I can walk there from my house. Post here. It will be a singlehanded sailing lunch/dinner. Saturday night Bob J, Rick E and I went for Thai with Steve Katzman and his crew, Will, after the race. Steve's almost a singlehander.

I needed a bacon cheeseburger after I got out of that Thai place.

And so many spicy little bits. So hard to pick each and every one out of your meal. That doesn't happen at Burger King, for sure! Maybe singlehanders need to be contained. Not allowed far from the boat.
 
Your race committee at work. It takes a lot of checking off numbers at the end. Thank you RC. We went Blackaller first, TI then RR. Got stuck at TI and had to anchor while others made it through. We won the anchor race with Domino so there is that.

Thank you Slackwater! Good picture and first I have of my new toy Koke Honu on the water. Looks like just before the start when I was a little early and I was trying to scrub off time before sheeting in at the line.....Still learning the translation from Mono to multi....Rick
