2026 Results
Week 1 - June 2 (raceq replay)
- Wind: Southerly (filled in late)
- Windward mark: 175° at ~3/4 nm
- Course: W/L (leeward mark above S/F), twice around
Around 3PM it didn't seem like we'd get a race off but the southerly filled just in time for a glorious night of sailing.
Despite not finding the keys for the whaler, we used a dinghy to set a windward mark at 175 degrees, approximately 3/4 nm out. We set the leeward mark above the start/finish line and sent the boats twice around.
Peter Friedrichs on Divine had the standout performance of the night, starting OCS and rounding the pin, they ground it out and ended up winning their section. A truly impressive performance for a doublehanded boat.
We ran all boats on the same course tonight and scored them together.

Week 2 - June 9 (raceq replay)
- Wind: 10–12 kts
- Course set: 240°
- Actual wind: 220–280° (oscillating)
- Tide: Mid (ebbing)
- Course: Olympic (“O”) at ~1/2 nm
Tonight's westerly turned into a blessing in disguise. A short course kept the racing tight and allowed us to get two races off and still make it back for burritos.
The Olympic course was especially challenging for the spinnaker class tonight due to the significant wind oscillations. It was tough to decide when to hold a kite and when to douse on the reaches.
Though the results were the same for both races, the starts were completely different.
The first start was quite leisurely with most of the boats hitting the line during the first minute of the race. The second start was a completely different animal with the whole fleet jockeying for position on the line and Goose having to shoot the pin at the last second.
All boats ran the same course and raced together.
