Once again, I have been remiss in updating the news for quite some t= ime. We have recently had one boat sold, another owner added to the li= st (#12 - welcome John!) and probably scores of other activity I've missed.&= nbsp; The boat recently sold, Frers-a-Jack, had been in long term yard stora= ge, so it will be good for her get back out there. There are a couple o= f boats listed on Yachtworld if you know anyone looking. Wild Thing (B= oston) is listed twice, Stargazer (Boston), Mischief (Annapolis), and Mystif= ied (Chicago). Vapor Trail (MA) is also listed in our For Sale section= .
The biggest news from 2010 was our gathering in B= ranford in July. We managed to get 8 boats on the line, and got in 2 g= reat days of racing. No real surprise that Wolverine was again the boa= t to beat, but I think Dave was feeling the pressure from some of the other b= oats out there. We are slated to do this over again this year (July 9-= 10), with a promise of squeezing more races into the two days (weather permi= tting). The award for greatest distance traveled goes to Rod Stright a= nd his crew who came down from Halifax to sail on other people's boats to ge= t some experience. With a little luck Rod will bring Equinox down this= year to "dance with her sisters". Judging by some of the conversation= s, not only did everyone have a great time and promise to come back, but in a= ddition to Equinox there may be another boat in the wings to round the fleet= out to ten boats this year. That will be an event not to miss!
Art,
What were the winds in those 10 foot waves?
Thanks,
Frank Albert
