So afterwards at the Shaw ferry landing everyone sat around telling stories about the race. They all begged me to do a race report. Probably because they were weary from the race and were having a lot

We're expecting actual rough water for the race this morning. It should be our typical 25mph from South. The shape of the course puts us downwind in the outside (more exposed) leg and along shore goin

Thanks for showing up Debbie. As you heard we just took our beginning step: mainly to get a few of us set up to speak with the city/county about how to make this work. the points we are looking for co
