Wednesday Night Racing

Here are some photos from yesterday's Wednesday night race.

This J/30 is called "Lone Star":

The starting line is between the Yacht Basin breakwater and the race committee based in lawn chairs and car tailgates parked along the T-Head pier. Typically, a race committee is located in a boat and the starting line is between that boat and a floating mark... but this is quite atypical.

A dolphin followed our J/24 for a good mile or two, scaring the bejeezus out of our female crew member. As we were sitting along the rail with our legs overboard, she was scared that it might confuse our boat shoes for fish. Dolphins are traditionally considered good luck for sailors.


I love dolphins
