| End of Season Super Thursday!
A great turnout and a fitting end to a great season. Shifty winds kept the fleet mixed up but the racing was close with a couple ties. The Trapezoid course was a lot of fun when the breeze was up. Kevin finished the season with a classic port tack start on the fleet and we hit the dock before the wind shut off and turned the Vanguard fleet into a parking lot at the weather mark. Mike won the night with Eric following showing that consistency mattered most. Drake, James and Kevin rounded out the top five but there were top three scores down into the bottom of the fleet. Congrats to Drake, James & Mike for clinching the top three spots for the season! The Super's did a great job getting the races off in the conditions - kudos for their work all season. Super Thursday means Svendsen's night and Sean didn't disappoint with 2 Kegs, spicy sausages, apple pie, and the now famous Sean's Trivia game. Hat's, shirts, gloves, knives, job sheets, main sheets, 3M products, tape- they gave away a ton of stuff. Thanks Svendsen's for sponsoring the racing again this season!!! I think this has been the best season yet for the Laser fleet at TI -- thanks to everyone for making it so. It's been a pleasure racing with you. We're losing a few (fair winds & following seas to James Smith who is heading back East and Kevin who is heading over to the Dark Side) but hopefully most of the fleet will be back again in April (only 30 more weeks until the 2009 season!). In the meantime, plan on coming to the Awards party in November before Thanksgiving. For racing keep in mind the Totally Dinghy regatta in a couple weeks, the Fall One Design in October and the Mid-Winter series. Before we know it it'll be April 2 again! |
