Hanging out on the boat
The lake was packed and boats everywhere so I made a pass near the sandbar when a guy pulling kids on a tube stopped in front of me, pushing me in closer to the parked boats.
So I pointed into the wind and held for a bit... but slowly being blown back towards the boats I felt uneasy about my predicament. As soon as I was thinking about jumping off and taking a break the wind shifted , launched the boat into action swinging around and BAMMMM!!!!!!!! Remember to unhook the trap line ! |

Blue Eyes, Blue Sea
I must go down to the seas again
Sea Fever by John Masefield
I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

After a long day of racing.
The only person awake is the one not sailing. Missing the hot days up on Orcas.

Sick Day: Bryan, Drew and Art in the cockpit
Lake Tahoe has a healthy fleet of sailboat racers but we are too inexperienced to joint in, just yet. We have been long time residents of Reno, NV but this is our first year on the lake.

Spinnaker Poles Everywhere
In the Semi-Finals of the 2011 Chicago Match Cup, Keith Swinton used his leeward position to force a late jibe (and brief broach) by Phil Robertson. Swinton's maneuver cost him when he ran over the finish line marker and Robertson won. Swinton did however win the Cup.
In the background Pierre-Antoine Morvan and Alvaro Marinho head towards the windward marker.
