The Grand Challenge: Skipper's choice No. 1
Fair skies and light winds made the circumnavigation of Grand Island a great challenge on Saturday. High Noon heads for home in the waning light (see photo) while Haiku, Optiminium, and Thalia waited for wind south of Taku Inlet. Cetus and Tango gave up after light winds stranded them North of Grand Isle. More race details to come as the reports come in from all the boats.

Everyone will be rated and ready to go for the first race of the season on May 10th. Check the race schedule and register for the SEAS cup if you haven't already done so. Also, if you are interested in crewing on a boat, come out to the SEAS BBQ on May 9th at Sandy Beach, or keep an eye on the website and join us on Facebook.
