Sadly, Bruce got it right. ‘Twas a year for drifting in the Winter Vashon Race on Saturday. Jan and Skip didn’t even bother launching their mighty photo boat, but did get some fitting shots (including above) from shore.
There was a race with by my count 20 finishers. Light air racing is fun as well, just tests a different set of skills. Charlie Macaulay took the honors in Absolutely. Results.
If any of you Sailish readers can contribute some firsthand report – or “thrilling” pix – please sent ’em my way and I’ll include them here!
