TESOD Weekly Racing Reports - July 1, 2008

It was another awesome record night... 55 boats, 90 degree shifts and rainbow over the eastern shore!

Stats: breeze was SW no N no NW no S W @ 8-12 knots with puffs up to 15

The Walker clan, Nan, Jason, Hadlee and Jensen (3-legged and all) ran the Start/Finish boat. Trey Wildey and Doug Palmer worked feverously to keep up with the shifting breeze dragging marks around. The fleets even pitched in to help keep the line square as the mark boat was off tending the rest of the race course. That's true TESOD form! I couldn't even keep count of the # of races, but I know that there were some pretty tired Laser sailors at the last start.

Laser - 20
420 - 8
Snipe - 10
V15 - 6
Day Sailer - 2
Thistle - 1
Jet 14 - 1
FJ - 5
Lightning - 2
---------------- Total: 55 boats that's pretty good without a free keg ashore!
