Thanks RC for a great job! A challenging day with the morning weather, and wind shifts. The trifecta of course 4 was the right call. A special thanks to Beverly Caldwell and Jim Wells toughing it out on the 17ft Whaler. The radio traffic from the markset made us laugh on several occasions!

Sooooo lets see, next regatta...who in GBCA has big(ger) boats to help run markset and pin?

I agree that Beverly and Jim did a wonderful job with great attitudes despite the PRO pestering them to death. We (GBCA) could use more help with boats for setting marks, and particularly changing courses when the wind shifts. Call any Board member if you can help.

If no one else will say it

GREAT JOB JIM!!!

Getting 3 races off was a feat of incredible proportions.

Thanks for the work. Sixty degree shifts are not all that easy to deal with.

I totally agree.

Thanks, and many thanks to the hard working crew (Beverly and Jim ) on the markset boat for doing the heavy lifting.

Again, great job RC. It would be difficult to do it any better given the conditions
