Ahoy -

    10 boats raced this evening in a good 15 knots of WSW wind.  The course was the usual windward starting leg and the standard clockwise run around the triangle.  Current was heading west, out of the sound, but didn't affect the speeds so much between the chops...maybe because of the strong wind.  Artful Dodger, undeterred by carrying the 2023 winner's penalty, won the race, but only by 21 seconds over Zebra who benefited from a ratings adjustment, having completed 5 races this season. Gloria gets a third, 1 second behind Zebra.   

    This Saturday is an opportunity to race for the VHYC Jewett Bowl.  This is a pursuit start format race with spinnaker equipped boats racing against cruising class boats using Phrf-NE ratings.  What could go wrong?  Always fun.  You need to wait until the end to find out who wins, but you don't have to wait for a report from the handicapper.  Boats are scored as the cross the finish line.  You have until 11 PM tonight to register:  https://www.regattanetwork.com/event/28644#_registration

   Even if you have pre-paid for the Moffett race with your HHSA dues, you need to register your boat and sign the waivers.
