Cancelled JYC Spring #2
You’ll note I just cancelled race #2. I plan on checking out Jorge’s progress this weekend, but for sure, even if he is done, we wouldn’t be ready for Tuesday. Don’t give up hope! I think Race #3 is a reasonable target for our first race! Thanks for your patience!

Pre-Season Update
Hey all, Just wanted to update you on our pre-season activities. Spirit is in the repair shed right now! Of course, this is later than hoped, but Jorge doesn’t view this as a big job and it seems likely that she’ll be complete next week. He’s also going to reinstall the jib tracks (faster than …
