AM Sonar- Winds NE, 18-22 kts, 4‘ seas
4 boats left the harbor.  The start was delay due to RC challenges.  3 boats started and finished the first race, then several of the boats chose to retire due to cold crew members and racing was wrapped up.  RC made note to try to ensure on time starting to avoid competitors getting tired and cold.

Afternoon-Sonar and 420
Conditions on the lake were not friendly so the sonars sailed in the harbor with the 420s. This led to some interesting starts, roundings and finishes.  We also found that there are some shallow objects in the harbor near the docks on the southwest side of the harbor.  One of the sonars hit this and had to go back in, luckily for them, there was an extra boat to swap out with.  Overall the sonars got 5 races and the 420s got 3 races in.  It was a fun day on the water!

The sun came out in the afternoon.  Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Art K’s performance docking Argo was noted.
