As Bruce predicted, it was a pretty light day in the southernmost of South Sound races. For those who braved the cold, they got to enjoy a gentle breeze, shortened course and a chance to be merry (or get back north) afterward with friends.
Dave Knowlton, skipper of the non-flying sails class winner Koosah, says “It was a great race!! They thankfully shortened it at Toliva Shoal! Boats from up north just kept going and the Oly boats motored home!!
The Antrim 27 Redline skippered by Kyle Reese-Cassal won PHRF 5 and overall. The J/35s and Express 37s enjoyed some near level racing with 6 boats in Class 4. Results.
