Opening Day...Sort Of

Fleet 9's opening day was met with conditions that tested even the most diehard spring sailors in the fleet. Upper 40's/ low 50's and a soaking rain saw more than a few fleet members head for the greener pastures of the AYC bar and the Masters tourney. After a few hours of rigging and "are we really doing this?," a three boat contingent made up of Mike/ Russ, Matt/ Zack, and Dan/ Joerg ventured out after the worst of the front had passed through for a nice moderate air session in the later afternoon. It was great to see the Bassmaster out and having a blast, with due credit to Ted who managed to pull everything together in time for the new guys(in sandals no less!). A great time was had by all.

We'll be meeting again this Sunday for round 2. With any luck, the weather will cooperate and a 6-10 boat fleet will be there to enjoy!
