Hi Guys,
We had an amazing time in Chatham Mass, the winds almost blew the kids off the water the second day with gusts of 20 knots in the am and 25 in the pm. Fist day they had a clinic and day two 7 races and four in the am on the final day. They sailed three different courses, with one and two lap variations, M, (triangle with upwind finish), D (like and I course) and F (triangle with sausage on lap two). Great showing by our kids (5 out of 19 kids)and terrific experience for them.
