Ahoy Crew,
Please update your availability at this link from Maybe to Yes or No and indicate if bringing a significant other so we have an accurate head count.
We plan on having a Texas Tuesday New England Style farewell at the Kneller’s house for John & Laurence, who are Tom & Diana’s Innkeepers at the Almondy Inn. John & Laurence are moving to Florida. The plan is for Vento Solare to finish practice and be back at the dock no later than 6:30pm so we can proceed to the party. Other people attending are John & Laurence, new innkeepers Shelby & Jerome, Eric Irwin, Mary Martin, Julija & Conor O’Neil, Lisa Hammond, Caitlin Niemic, and Jakob Sutton.
Cindy is getting Blount Clam Chowder and Mary is bringing Yankee Pot Roast and Shrimp Scampi. Lisa is bringing a cake and Maggie is bringing a Chopped Salad and appetizer. Feel free to bring any beverages.

Thank you for a great time. That hour penelty seems steep. If you look at yellow brick there were a few other boats in our class that were just inside that south east dot. Not sure how picky they were being.
Either way great work by everyone. Enjoy the party.
Bill went to the protest hearing about our sailing in the exclusion zone to fix the spinnaker. The results of the protest was the RC added 1 hour to our corrected time. This put us in 2nd place for the youth entries. We would have had 1st in youth if not for this. Hope to see you all at the awards ceremony!
