Last years Flying Scot Atlantic Coast Championship was scrubbed due to a hurricane off the coast of New Jersey. This years weather was the perfect opposite. High temps on Saturday of 82 degrees, winds 10 to 14, and light cloud cover made for an almost perfect day on the water.

The newest boats to the US Marines Corps. Come sail them if you have access to Quantico. We would have been here yesterday but I fell asleep in one of the boats on top of a Mountain in Maryland, maybe West Virginia.
Deep Creek Yacht Club hosted the Sandy Douglass Memorial Regatta on 7/27-728 with 35 boats participating across 4 Divisions. There was enough wind on Saturday to get in a 1 and 1/2 Windward Leeward with the last leg being shortened. On Sunday, there was just no wind at all.

The winner of the coveted Monkey award was Tom Wolfe, who gets to add his own memorabilia before he brings it back next year.
