I definately had an awesome time at this regatta. It was so much fun to have a "spectator" regatta. I had actually gone down to the beach that Wed. to stay with some old high school buddies and they joined us on the water in a powerboat for both races. Hopefully, they stayed enough out of the way that none of you really noticed them. But, the first thing they all said to me when I got back to the house was, "Dude, who the hell was on that orange boat." You really did sail well Jake (and I'm so sorry but I can't recall who crewed). All my buddies, who know nothing about racing, said that they really enjoyed watching it. After a couple of races they started to figure it out as far as who was leading and what not. I really hope that this race will continue to happen in the future. Thanks to Surfside, Sail and Ski, the Surfside P.D, and the others who helped make this an awesome regatta, despite the wind. It was nice meeting many of you and seeing some familiar faces. I hope to see ya'll at Hatteras, especially you Tawd. You gotta rep the hometown race dude.
