The 5 days since the open house have been busy in the boat shop. Everyone who took a tour of the Center was amazed at how many boats are in the shop and being worked on. The Ker 11.3 is the big repair. I am happy to report that we are in the home stretch and on schedule. Ronnie and Vlad are replacing the large structural panels we had to cut out of the boat in order to get access to the damaged area around the keel. Meanwhile….

There is a buzz in the sailing community that match racing in the United States is the new next best thing. While some may wonder whether the U.S. will fully embrace match racing to the level of excitement in Europe and other foreign ports and many will argue that match racing is definitely not new, there is no question that the level of racing and match racing on Long Island has been ratcheted up a notch or two (and quite possibly more) in the last few months. Enter Dawn Riley, who packed up her car on New Years Day and drove east to Oyster Bay and the Oakcliff Sailing Center to start her new position as executive director of the center.

Life is a journey. We are all on our individual roads. Where they lead is, of course, up to each of us and, sometimes, in the lap of the gods. For Lady Pippa Blake it was a cruel stroke when her husband, yachting legend Peter Blake, was killed by pirates in Brazil. But it was Blake herself who had ensured her life would be a life less ordinary by falling in love with a great adventurer and being open to the exciting life he led.

As a teenager, Gavin Brady made his first match-race circling manoeuvre around another up-and-coming sailor named Dean Barker.
"Here I am at 35, and we're still going around in circles with each other," a frustrated Brady said yesterday, after a gear failure with his Mascalzone Latino Audi team abruptly killed a fierce on-the-water duel with Emirates Team New Zealand in the Louis Vuitton Trophy in Auckland.

During the second upwind leg, after having led the entire race, a titanium halyard clip at the head of the jib broke, forcing the inevitable defeat for the Rascals who showed the ultimate in sportsmanship by finishing the race without the jib.

Thankfully longtime Star crew Chris Rogers was here this weekend without a skipper so I could have somebody to sail with after Brad decided he would be better spending the week with the doctors. We had two starts today, the second of which went off under the threat of black flag.

Day Two of PUMA International Moth Worlds got to a late start as a foggy haze and light winds lead to a 30 minute postponement onshore. Today was really a pressure game- those who stayed in the pressure were able to get up on their foils and make gains. The fleet had three races today, bringing the total for the event up to four. Races two and three saw light winds and tough foiling conditions. The breeze filled in a bit for race four, allowing the fleet to really get up and moving. The leader board remains relativity unchanged, with Andrew "Amac" McDougall still in the number one spot. After day two, the top five are:
