After tropical storm Hanna, which brought some rain and a few large gusts of wind (otherwise no much of a show!) the wind calmed down enough for two races. The plan of having two back-to-back races plus a third in the afternoon was re-evaluated and changed so there were only two races on Sunday. There were a few canoes missing from the weekend, *Spirit of Wyetowne, Oliver’s Gift, Persistence, Silver Heel, Billie P. Hall, Magic, and Noddy. *The *Mary Julia Hall *again showed up but was not able to race for the first race. A beautiful day for racing with a close finish between Island Blossom and Jay Dee, with Island Lark right behind both. The rest of the fleet was several minutes behind the first 3 boats.
Island Blossom got the gun!

Mary Julia Hall came out for the second race, making a total of 8 canoes competing. The wind seemed to be dying off towards the late afternoon but held out long enough to finish the races. It was great to see Mary Julia Hall sailing with the fleet, she only sailed her jib and her fore but finished the course.
Jay Dee got the gun!

The last race of the day and the season was bitter-sweet… Only 6 canoes competing with lots of wind making for a rough day, very squriley and shifty! Everyone tired from the first race, possibly hung over, looking forward to finishing the season and relaxing…
Mystery and Jay Dee were fighting for a lead on the fleet, meanwhile Island Lark came up behind and closed the gap finishing ahead of Jay Dee. The Island Bird capsized in the previous race and was unable to compete for this one.
Island Lark Got the Gun!
