April 8, 1997.

On the first Tuesday after the start of Daylight Savings Time six Fleet 18 members showed up at the Foster City boat ramp for the beginning of another summer of evening races. Before launching any of the marks Dan Colton measured the wind. His readings showed it to be 30mph with gusts over 40mph! We figured that if we had 2.5 sq. meter sails we might have a good time. If we had 4 sq. meter sails we might sail. Since we had 6.3 to 7.4 sq. meter sails we decided to have pizza and beer a little early.

 The rest of April...

Crown Beach, Alameda, April 25, 1997

The wind was light when fleetmembers showed up at 12 noon. The first race, run at 2:30, had rising wind estimated at about 12mph. The wind built up during the race until it was more than 15 mph. The second race had wind that steadily lightnened. Wind was no more than 10 at the start of the third race and it got lighter, making it hard. The waves were the size that a 15 mph wind would produce but at the end the wind was only 2-4mph. "Leftover Waves" make hard conditions.

Dan and Mark were way ahead of Glenn, usually by about a full leg of the course! Dan was sailing an IMCO with a 7.4 sq. m. sail, while Mark and everyone else were on Superlights with the stock 6.3 sq. m.

Thanks to Dave Snoek for recording the finish order.

Windsurfer Classic, Foster City, August 2, 1997

This year 6 sailors turned out to race classic, standard Windsurfer(TM) sailboards. Dennis Coburn came down from Reno and sailed the oldest craft, a Freestyle with a 6 digit sail number Dacron sail. Dennis seemed to tire less than the rest of us in the gusty 12-15mph wind and was moving up race by race. The rest of the fleet had One Design type hulls equipped with the Mylar laminate sails that were the standard when the craft was discontinued.

 Race one of the 1997 Santa Cruz regatta was great! Wind was 15+ mph and waves were small. We ripped on the reach to the Mile Bouy. Now if only we could have gotten our acts together for another race before the wind quit...

Dan Colton's family gave us a great party. Thanks from all of us.
