2013 FBYC Flying Scot Stew Pot Regatta

Following a late night at the Richmond NASCAR race I was off to Fishing Bay Yacht Club for the Stew Pot Regatta to sail on Rob Whittemore’s Flying Scot – Patriot.  We had 8 other Flying Scots out with us and 3 Front Runners in 11-15 knots of wind out of the ESE.  The first 3 races were 4/5 mi H course and the last two were a W4 and a G.  We had  good starts, great boat speed and kept to the favored side of the course.  John Wake and his wife Sharon were close competition all day, but we managed to snip them at the line a couple of times.  All in all it was a fun day sailing with Rob and great to get 5 bullets to win the day.
