Er, I mean races. <br />bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04794351142636136626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10267465.post-14529098988676202192012-09-26T10:19:37.355-04:002012-09-26T10:19:37.355-04:00Thanks!

There was a lot of pain in this one, I was seriously reminded of my first fall race series 2 years ago when I was struggling so badly, and there was definitely a point during that long long beat to windward when I thought "This is supposed to be the fun race. Where is fun?" <br /><br />But boy, as I mentioned, that moment when I finally made the last tack of the beat and realized that I was finally going to clear Ruffle Bar - that was awesome. <br /><br />I've actually been out on a windier day but that time didn't go so well. This time, I was glad Jim was out there in the safety boat, but I didn't end up needing assistance at all. Felt very good. <br /><br />bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04794351142636136626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10267465.post-61475097739426435612012-09-26T09:28:26.659-04:002012-09-26T09:28:26.659-04:00Sounds like a great day on the water to me!

You capture the pleasures (and pains) of dinghy racing so well. <br /><br />I love these long distance races rather than the usual short round and round the same old buoy races.<br /><br />Well done!Tillermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639738519386820997noreply@blogger.com
