Wednesday Night 2026 — Race 3

« Back to Event

Date: 2026-05-27 • Wind: Heavy

The 3rd race of the Wednesday Night Racing gave the boats that came out to sail a nice sunny evening with heafty winds at above 12 knots with 2 foot waves from the north.  The RC with the help of Machelle and her sister Tiffany set a I-5 course with the windward mark set at 030 deg northerly about .5 miles north of the start/finish.  The leeward mark was North Canoe government mark with leg 2 being 1.5 miles long.  At check in time 12 boats came out to race but before the star several decided not to race with 9 crossing the start line.  At mark 1 it apperared that Eclat was 1st around the mark followed by IKO IKO and Stinger.  Eclat set their chute along with IKO IKO.  Eclat ended up with an awful hourglass and dropped out of the race.  All of the remaining boats opted not to fly their spinnakers and proceeded to mark 2 North Canoe.  IKO IKO rounded that mark 1st followed by the rest of the fleet.  The RC decided to shorten course at the upwind mark 3 so they pulled anchor and reset at the new finish mark.  Congratulations to IKO IKO for finishing 1st with line honors and corrected time followed by Stinger and Downtown.  Remember that when checking in with the RC to approach the stern of the signal boat on your starboard side and slow down and close enough to receive instructions from them.  Please review the SI's that also describe the government marks that are used for racing.

See you all next wednesday.
