Sue Weiss reports on a blustery good time:
Thanks for Bruce’s weather predictions! Strong southerly winds made it a perfect day to race to Blakely Rock and support NW Harvest.
Three long time supporters returned to Seattle Singles Yacht Club’s 28th Northwest Harvest Benefit Race September 26. Alan Vogt (Mountaineers) continued his winning tradition by taking first place in his NFS class Saturday on Blue Fin. It was the 25th year that he has participated in this event, having done the race since its first year August 14, 1993. He moved out of state for a few years, returned, resumed racing, and winning.
