Fleet Championship

6 local Stars competed in beautiful weather for the Fleets - Congrats to Al Cullen and Chuck Hansen for their win. Thanks to Brett for the RC work in trying conditions.

There was plenty of on the water confusion and dock conversation about the correct finishing procedure in the two shortened races.  As you recall , the tide was very strong and the wind light, particularly in the last race.

Boat ownership changes - 8017-8324
