Winter Vashon
- Winter Vashon report.
Pulley Point
- I participated in the Pulley Point race on Eric Mack's Tartan 10, Xiphius (aka See Ya Later). We and half the fleet finshed only minutes from the 9 hour time limit, as an evening breeze kicked up at sundown and sped everyone home.
Tri-Island/Tri-Point Race #1, Scatchet Head
Wednesday Nights
Tri-Island/Tri-Point Race #2, Three Tree Point, Vashon Island
Swiftsure 2001
- I participated in my first Swiftsure aboard Steve Johnson's fine Cookson 12m, White Cloud. We sailed the Exhibition Race, and took first in class.
Tri-Island/Tri-Point Race #3, Blakely Rocks
- Orcrist didnt go out for the Blakely Race.
Leukemia Cup
- As is typical, its either light air on the Sound, or its screaming. For most of the Spring we've been experiencing mild conditions, but the day Leukemia Cup rolled around, the winds were wipping along at 20-25 knots. We had a green crew of about 6 for this Saturday-only series of PHRF bouy racing.
Vashon Challenge Doublehanded race
- Dave Garman and I sailed Giant Slayer, while Dan Jordan and Summer Locke sailed Orcrist in this year's Vashon Challenge. A frustratingly light air day, of the 30 starters, only 8 finished, and neither Giant Slayer nor Orcrist were among those 8.
Bridge To Bridge 2001
- I helped Stan Perkins' tank of a SC27, Mirage, take first in this years Bridge To Bridge Oregon Offshore race. Photos soon
Single Handed Regatta
Foulweather Bluff
- Orcrist sailed the Foulweather Bluff race on a picture perfect day. It was the first race for Liz and Nancy. We were too light for the 18 knots of air around Pt No Pt, and the sail change hurt us dearly. Trying to keep up with War Canoe, was, in fact, impossible for everyone else, too.
