Doublehanded Lightship Start

March 26, 2011

The Island Yacht Club's Doublehanded Lightship Race got off to a smooth start off the St. Francis Yacht Club race deck at 0900. But last night's storm passing through left lumpy conditions out past Pt. Bonita. Winds were light from the south at the start, and as of 1000 hours only one boat had turned back for home early.
