EGYC

Once again we won the weekend!  hahaha  The actual race, not so much, with a 9/14.  BUT, I think we were literally just a minute or two out of THIRD — we saw Dark Star finish right in front of us and they were 4th.  We had a pretty tight wrap going on the downwind …

Good sail Sunday/yesterday.  The mast stayed up (LOL) and boat showed (at least numerically) good speed and point.  Moreover, the rig is at a “reasonable” base setting, both in terms of forestay length and shroud tension, so I think we can now use JYC and Leukemia Cup to get a sense of our relative performance …

2019 Season Schedule

Hey all, The rough schedule is at last in Crew Manager. I hope you weren’t bombarded with a ton of emails — I attempted to turn off email notification, but it look likes it might have come back on today. :/ Regardless, please take some time and look through the events, days and assignments.
