A River Runs Through It (11/4/12)

The first day of frostbite racing for the 2012-2013 season started a little late on Sunday while folks got their boats and rigs down to the dock. Ray P. brought his new (well, new to him) Sunfish to join the fleet, and Beth rejoined us after several years of absence due to grad school.

A river of light air ran down the course for the entirety of Sunday's racing, leaving skippers searching for the best wind and the favored tack. Boats on a solid layline one minute would be in irons the text.
