Sunday, 09/27/2020 CR914 "Chuck Winder Race #3"
Seven skippers showed up to race in an almost dead calm Redd's Pond.
The breeze was very variable and frustrating but did build as the harbor fog cleared and more sun came out.
Eight heats were raced with one throwout. It should be noted that Bill Davis started the day strong with two first
place finishes in the first three heats. During heat four we had a scare as Bill Davis tripped over a hole in the sidewalk and took a bad fall.
Bill got himself up but retired from the rest of the racing. As many of you know the condition of the sidewalk is very bad and there are numerous
sink holes in it. This past weekend Commodore Martin informed me that town workers told him then that repairs to the sidewalk would be beginning
in two weeks. At this time it is unclear how the repairs will affect the remainder of the club's schedule....
