I just wanted to send a big thank you to Nigel and Tammy, Mr Ernie and all the other volenteers at SF. Nigel and Tammy were gracious host to use their home and pool area for some great parties each night. SailMax sponsored the Margarita tent which was especially good. The weather and wind was perfect all 3 days. Fri and Sat started at 10 and built to around 20 each day. Sunday was also 10-15. All was good except for the 2nd race on Friday when I buried the hulls making the transition rounding at A mark, which sent Loyd flying. Unfortunately for my ego, Water Cooper captured the pitchpole with a series of photos. We had to relive it each night as it showed at Nigels, but it did provide entertainment. Since I'm new to the F18, I'll chalk it up to learning the boat's limits.
