Racing was canceled on 12/30 due to strong, shifting winds that took out two-thirds of the fleet in the first leg of the first race.

Now that's more like it...

We had excellent racing conditions today with strong but not overpowering winds and relatively smooth water. Boats were getting up onto a plane on the beam reaches. The race committee tried to make things challenging by putting the gybe mark between the north and south docks, but all the skippers managed that challenge gracefully.
