What a GREAT night for our Spring Series race #4.
The only problem the Race Committee (ME) screwed up the whole evening.
The race course changes each week and is communicated to the fleet via a chalk board
at the start of the evening.
We (I)put the wrong course on the board, announcing on the
radio a course that was different than the printed version.
Some of the fleet sailed the verbal course, while others
followed the written one.
To make it equitable for everyone, we decided to
just throw out the results.
Some boats sailed the race of the year and will get no credit.
When we (I) screw up it ruins it for A LOT of people.
It's a good thing it's a long season, we have lots of racing left.

I hope they didn't hold it against you, too much. There's a sense of excitement and power in this photo.
