Nice job to all who finished and glad to hear most are back on the beach!

Big congrats to Todd for finishing 3rd in his first ever F18 race, that must feel good!

What's up with all the broken mast bases??

Laura and I were just behind them and saw the Falcon lose their mast so we stopped and stood by.

We threw them a tow line and sailed to the Islander. We towed them almost 30 miles in 3 1/2 hours, dropped them off and continued on to Anne's Beach

We're ready for tomorrow...
