Chris, what are you saying? Except for Ellison, everyone on board BMWO is a Kiwi. LOL

Congrats to Tony. He sailed great and did it with style and respect of the rules and the other skippers in very challenging conditions. And he got a very deserving and very cold shower for winning his first regatta.

Hats off again to Doc Greer, Jon Luscomb and the whole PBG crew for an excellent event. Saturday morning had 20 kts of wind steady with gusts over 26 kts and a wind chill of 40 degrees. It was not the kind of thing you wanted to start your regatta. Doc handled it well and the tough decision to postpone the event until noon when the sun would have a chance to warm up the air a little and drop the winds below 15 kts for some great B-rig racing. Doc also stood guard over all the boats and gear while the skippers retreated back to their hotel rooms to stay warm.

Great event at PBG. Thanks to all and to the Greers. I would not have been in the hotel till the wind abated. I would have been practicing with parka, gloves, ear muffs and TX cover.

One for the books, eh?
