25 Years a Snipe Sailor

I should be able to jerry rig this. I'm a sailor!!

LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE GIRLS!!!  There's still time to register for this weekend's Women's Nationals! I can't be there, but I hope a lot of you out there will be!

A light hearted account of this year's Nationals!

My Blog's namesake.  I couldn't get "I'm Sailing!" so I had to paraphrase :)

COTTAGE PARK YACHT CLUB,WINTHROP, MASSACHUSETTS

Does anyone know if the current Jr National Champion has ever won the National Championship before?? If not, congrats to Raul Rios for making history and on an incredible showing in Iowa!!

The lone international boat takes home the top prize as Raul Rios wins his 5th....yes you read that correctly...5th!! Junior National Championship.  In less than stellar wind conditions Raul and his crew Henry Dumke out-maneuvered the other boats for 3 first place finishes and the overall title.   http://snipeusa.com/2014/07/raul-rios-wins-2014-scira-usa-jr-nationals/

I loved that Winchester did a Classic Snipe Rally.  Wish I was there in person to see them! Also, Congrats to Cam Fraser and Lolitta Kumaresan on their 3 bullets and the overall win!

Snipe Nationals Day 3 - that does not look promising!

Is there any better feeling than having the perfect, clear air start?  Well maybe hitting that first wind shift!

The annual June regatta on my home lake.  The beautiful Lake Quassapaug!
