Much of the past week circled around me moving to another apartment in Coconut Grove. Amazing how much stuff my 1 bedroom held.
Work at Team Paradise continued despite my divided efforts, much thanks to Danny, Steve and James. What jewel volunteers that I surround myself with! Thanks for a great week.
Wednesday Night Racing has become our focal point for the week. Lessons are learned each time and we adjust accordingly. The breeze was forecasted between 13-16 knots, so we decided to go with four people on each boat. After a final head count, it meant leaving one boat at the dock and only race three boats. As it turned out, the breeze kind of fizzled and we could very well have been three people on each boat.
The really good news is that our group seems to get better by each Wednesday; new participants are showing up, some of which are very good sailors.
Next weekend is a road trip for Team Paradise. Danny is bringing two 2.4mR boats to New Jersey for a weekend fun(d) race on Lake Hopatcong. I will share our experience in my Mag Blog next week.
In preparation for the Tomahawk Regatta in NJ we worked diligently on the two boats we are bringing to the event. All the lead was removed from one boat in order to clean the bilge. The wiring for the bilge pump was re-done and they are now ready to be shipped. Check out the pictures on this page.
The Biscayne Bay Cruise had new takers. What a great place we live in!
