Here's a video of the event - catch Lindsay at 1:54
Where's the crowd been for frostbiting? Light airs on November 8, but we still got in 4 races! Sailors are showing up, but not the big crowds I've seen in the past. Its not too late too join. Big boat decomissioned for the winter? You don't have to stop sailing 'till next spring. Come on down and give it a try - it'll probably be warm enough for the next weekend or two to get by in a wetsuit.

A note from Bob - Over the years, every now and then, I get a note from someone asking how to join a race. The short answer - just show up! We'll get you signed in at the site. We don't need advance notice, and we don't hold anyone responsible if they can't make it at the last minute (flashback to last years Southampton YC Regatta, when the alternator on my tow vehicle failed halfway there!) There may be an Invitational or some other event that requires qualifying, check the Schedule, but the vast majority of our events have no pre-registration. Anyhow, just bring your boat to the next regatta that looks good to you and you're in!
