(click for pictures) We got in 4 races today before noon, which is quite obviously a BEIYC record considering our races usually don't even start before noon. Ice was soft and sticky, winds were high but plenty manageable. The new marks and starting blocks have catapulted the club into the 21st century, if only we could figure out what the numbers mean. Brett Smith was consistently fast all day, and had a runner in the air a lot. Some pictures below. Sorry there are no better action shots of the Commodore, but he was going so fast that better pictures would have required a specialized and sophisticated high speed professional camera just to get the boat from being a blurr. We had all the boats packed up and off the ice by 1:30, just in time for pizza and beer. It was a record short day for me for a same day set up / tear down. The season is over for the BEIYC which is always so sad................
