Saturday March 8 - No wind, great food

Windless day. We were on the ice by 6:45 am. no breeze at all.  Big line up of boats. Lots of visitors, unfortunately no chance to get a ride. It was still. A bit of breeze came up mid afternoon, but by then the ice was too soft. So what to do with no wind? Talk with friends and visitors & eat! We had a mighty fine pot luck on the ice.  Sunday winds look better. Come down early. see you then.

Many boats lined up in still air. From the bluff at Astor Point.

The Pot Luck table...

Cold Wave rigged and ready to sail. Just needed the wind.

The cat-rigged Dash got an old main sail from Hound. She looked great - first time in almost 100 years??

The North Shrewsbury sailors were quite gracious and presented our club - HRIYC - with a framed photo of the Rocket & Jack Frost and their thanks.

Oysters on ice!

Our Bayport friend Peter Zendt - skipper of Great South Bay Scooters - once again provides
our pot luck with oysters, as well as an expert hand at shucking!
