The first race of the Magothy River Sailing Association's fall series started out with a bang, literally.
A collision between a couple of non-spins rounding the windward mark caused much sound, but little fury, as neither was damaged enough to retire. We think the Pearson 30 Merlin had rights, but it was hard to tell from our (uh hum, distant ...) perspective.
The weather was just about on target, too, with give or take a bit on 12kts and a fine mist of rain by the finish.
Meanwhile, far back in the pack, was our C&C 27 Options (Larry Ricci, skipper). Our star-crossed campaign continues, thanks in part to a botched sail change at the top mark by yours truly:

In future, I hope to carry some sort of report on the high-society races at that other river to the south.
