2015 FBYC J/70 Friday Night Series – June 19

We had another beautiful night of J/70 racing on the Piankatank River.  The wind was in the 6-8 range.  We had 5 boats out and started with 2 one lap races.  We had a bit of a slow start, but got our boatspeed a little better and really noticed the difference in speed on the balance of the boat.  By the 3rd and longer race we led wire-to-wire and were leading the 4th race to the dock when we put the afterburners(engine) on to beat the rush to the hoist.
