Race to the Straits

Set the spinnaker at exit to Shilshole and doused at entrance to Port Townsend. Predicted 15-25 never filled in but we still finished before 1500. AYC b0ats Slightly Ripped and Wild Rumpus were there and Ian and Joy brought Stranger; also the Pretorion 35 "Seeker" that flies the scarlet letter from Mukilteo was there too. Lot's of jibes probably 80 or so boats in a pursuit format and both singlehanded and doublehanded crews, also a few stowaways.... Port Townsend featured a reception at the Amerian Legion and a very wet rain squall Saturday evening. Sunday the race was back to Seattle, no wind and significant current dictated our decision, we were back @ Cap Sante in time to mow the lawn....
