Frostbite racing results for 1/23/2011

With rigs, gear and support arriving from all over New England and Rhode Island, the Frozen Few were able to take to the seas again this Sunday for a heartwarming series of races in bitterly cold temperatures. The Race Committee safety boats made their way from Port Edgewood through icy waters.

Smiles were warm and cheerful, though fingers and toes were chilly. Racers helped each other get gear to the boats. Sailors and the Race Committee captured the day in photos. Everyone was happy to pitch in and all were grateful for the bar-b-que party held afterwards in the parking lot of the Edgewood Yacht Club.

Thank you Race Committee, Frozen Skippers, EYC and everyone who are supporting our efforts to keep sailing in adverse conditions!
