Very hot with 0 wind to start the day.
Seabreeze comes up late and off we go.
Nice breeze for race 1.
Looking ok as we go up 2nd windward , then vang breaks and boom points skyward.
Same time thunder comes from the bridge. Cant go to CYC - thats where thunderstorm is
going. James Island not good - we are at about dead low tide. Chill out and just rerun the
entire vang - almost good as new and now ready for race 2. See the Lightnings heading to CYC as well as the E scows and J's. However looks like its clearing and course B might keep on sailing.
Then Boom another thunder clap. We are all waved in. Chaos at the dock as all try to go in at once.
Will call it a one day regatta - forecast for more of the same tomorrow with blistering heat index.
Just cant tolerate that heat as well as in the past.
Of note, Greg Zack got a bullet for the race of the day in the laser fulls - ahead of a lot of good sailors. Eddie Nowell got 4th. Good luck to those guys tomorrow.
CYC hosting Youth Match Race and our open regatta this coming weekend.
Hope we can get it in before Emily threatens.
