finish line
T
he November Race was held November 12. The weather was excellent. There were winds for the entire
race, though it did get low at times. Jibe Talkin led the A fleet, while Compromise came in first for C fleet.
Special mention goes to Robbie Epstein on Thorfinn for being the first
A fleet boat to cross the finish line and Brian Smith on Pearl for being
the first C fleet boat to cross the finish line.
The next big boat race is the
first Zevin on December 10.
The Frosty Nipple small boat
series starts on December 4,
with a second race on December 18.
I am pleased to announce a
new race at FWYC. The Leonard Thomas Regatta will be
held on May 13 2017. Many
of you racers may remember
Lenny. The last boat he sailed was Cantankerous.
Gloria Thomas and her daughter, Linda, are shown with the trophies in
honor of Lenny. The trophies were designed by his son, Patrick Thomas.
