Scheleen Rathkopf and her team are putting on the Whidbey Island Race Week for the last time before moving it to Point Roberts. Looks like there was one race in a Southerly in Saratoga Passage on Wednesday (yes, that has happened before) and lots of races the last couple of days.
I’ll try to get a report and Jan’s pictures out when the fat boy has sung. Charley Rathkopf is posting live results, so you can follow along tomorrow at work when you’re not working.
In the meantime, here are the results. Mad Dash and More Uff Da are dominating, but there’s close competition in the other classes..
If any of you folks have some pictures from the racecourse to share in the next couple days, please send ’em here, not just Facebook!
