Can we PLEASE show up the men and sign up EARLY!!!! No waiting till the last minute girlz....that's not our style.

DollFin · March 30, 2011, 06:05:59 PM

We don't mean to wait but we just need to be sure the new paint job on the Soling is ready to go back in the water!

Corrie on a big boat? What a shame.

It's on

Perhaps if you are a lady with experience at the helm or just have a sense of adventure - you can post here that you would love to race this weekend if you only had a boat.....and someone could volunteer their boat and crew? It's a chance to go sailing in April when there is a wind and it's not blazingly hot.

Only 5 boats? Let's fix that.

Hi Ladies, I'm in. Sorry for my delay in signing up - I was off celebrating Walter's birthday. It takes a long time to drink 52 bottles of wine.

Any other takers for the non-spin class? Or spin? I've sent a note to the reigning Perpetual Trophy winner from 2010, Anne Lee, and I know she's not going to give up that trophy easily!

Get your boats lined up now! Chick on the stick, the rest of the crew is your choice. Wednesday night about drink-thirty is a good time to see whose boats are available. Register before midnight to get your reduced entry fee.

ChrisA · April 05, 2011, 05:52:45 PM

I'm pretty sure I have a markset boat.

DollFin · April 05, 2011, 06:36:37 PM

Unless the wind forecast drops off a bit, we won't be entering the Soling - I am majorly depressed.

ChrisA · April 05, 2011, 07:34:22 PM

Karen, are you really going to let a little bit of wind get in the way of a really fun day?

DollFin · April 05, 2011, 07:43:40 PM

Chris, if we had a boat that was not 40+ years old and is held together with duct tape and bailing wire (not to mention that we literally just finished the new paint job), it would not be a problem - we just can't risk it on the bay in winds like they are predicting no matter WHO is driving.

Sailchick · April 07, 2011, 11:31:47 AM

14 boats signed up and the wind supposed to blow 20!! Can't wait!!

Sailchick · April 08, 2011, 10:49:17 AM

Okay, sailflow is starting to show 14 - 16 tomorrow. I promised Brad we wouldn't hurt the boat, only ourselves.

In weather like that - common sense dictates we stay home. In lieu of common sense, I have foul weather gear.

Since Shelton isn't available, Beverly has kindly offered me a crew spot on the J40. Woo hoo, big boat, big winds, big fun!!
