All By Ourselves

The weekend was shaping up to be a great one.  After the wet and cold July, the crew of Haiku was really looking forward to some sunny sailing, a beach party, and some great camaraderie on the hook at Ad Cove.  The forecast called for some light westerlies, which, as every Juneau sailor knows means there will be some decent breeze on the backside of Douglas, and probably some sunny weather.  

Labor Day Regatta - Funter Bay

Where: 
Auke Bay
When: 
08/31/2024 - 10:00 to 09/02/2024 - 21:00

Leg 1 (Saturday)

Starting in Favorite Channel at 9:30 a.m. between the Committee boat and the North light on Portland Island (an imaginary line bearing 195 magnetic to, and within ½ mile of the mark), proceed north, keeping Strauss Rock to starboard, into Saginaw Channel, rounding Pt. Retreat into Lynn Canal, finishing in Funter Bay on an imaginary line bearing 62 magnetic, and within a ½ mile of Clear Point.
 

The Tortoises and the Hare

The second Skipper's choice race started off with a choice: there was a beautiful westerly blowing out from around the backside of Douglas, but further down the course there was a strong easterly coming out of Taku Inlet, and a calm convergence zone in between. Surprise and Shoreless both chose to start at the Marmion Island end of the line and stay high to keep out of the convergence zone.
