The boats had to wait on shore on Saturday until the gusting winds of up to 35 knots died down into the mid-teens. At around 1:30 pm the race committee felt the conditions were safe and headed out of the marina for the… Read more

The Battle of the Paddle by Ron Kiss #5509 and Rob Vogel #6058 In the parking lot of just about every yacht club on Barnegat Bay in New Jersey sits a number of covered Flying Scots just waiting to unfurl their sails in a perfect breeze.

As enthusiastic sailors, we all feel disappointment seeing so many Scots sitting under cover instead of on the water. By an unscientific… Read more
