Let the games begin!!!

I'm getting ready for our first day of sailing. Yesterday was the practice race and the opening ceremonies. This lake is going to be shiftier than we thought, but we'll deal with it. The opening ceremonies was pretty neat. Jeff Jonstone (son of the J24 inventor) spoke briefly, and then the owners of the 2nd J24 to ever come of the assembly line spoke for a while. They bought and still own hull #6. I never realized how much J24 history is in this area of the country, but I guess with this being fleet #1 and the fact that they bought 6 of the first 25 J24s, that does stand to reason. Racing starts today. Results can be found at http://www.j24northamericans.com/.
