April OD Regatta & WNR Notice

[Bruce Long]

Just a great opening regatta. On Saturday, 6 Stars had 5 races in a light easterly breeze.  There was lots of head scratching in the shifts and everyone had a few moments to lead.  Fishy and Andy Pitts joined us on Sunday to make 7 Stars. The westerly settled in and the sun came out. We had 4 races in a crazy spring runoff current, despite the ebb. Steve and Rob dominated with 4 aces to easily win the regatta. We couldn't hoist in the low tide, so it was beers in the club to finish the day.

We need 5 Stars registered and 4 boats on the line to get a start. Can I ask you all, even if you suspect you will only be out a few times, to sign up asap, to get us a start.
