Skip,being the eloquent guy he is,said it all very succinctly.
Joe:you and your well seasoned committee did a GREAT job giving us the opportunity to sail a truly superb Nationals!
There were opportunities to improve your position on every leg of the course and though we had some "discussions" at mark roundings;I am still pleased with our overall performance.
We have work to do,but we are getting better at sailing clean and fair.
We have new leadership at both CS (Joe Walter) and Florida(Richard Hederick) and these gentleman will lead us to new heights.
I thank Ric West for bringing us to where we are;he has tirelessly dragged us (often kicking and screaming) to the envy of many,may I say most,of the AMYA classes.
It was a wonderful regatta and I so enjoyed sailing with all the skippers.
Now I'll try to sort through 991 pictures to post on Picassa.
Thank you Karen Luscomb for photos.
