We just got the report, and saw the sirens/sheriff boat mobilizing. We heard that a boat capsized on Portage near Bootjack.
Advise it is a good day to party at the dock. Please alert OYC.

Hi OYC skippers,
There is a Severe Weather Special Statement today, gusts up to 40~45 (see below). Are we going to race anyway this afternoon? It looks rather "challenging". Please let me know, so I can disband my crew and they can continue working at their labs.
Kind Regards,
Fernando

Hi Dieter,
I really wish I could, but I don't think that I can gather the crew for it.
