Got the sailing season off to a great start on Saturday with the Opening Day Regatta at Fishing Bay Yacht Club sailing aboard the C&C37 Wavelength. We did one 12.5 mile race out around the channel buoys to the entrance of the Rappahannock River and back. We did some great sailing which included a spinnaker peel and managed to finish 2nd in some very close racing – only 36 seconds separated the top 4 boats on corrected time. Results and Pictures.
Here’s the video from Grace & Adrien’s wedding back at the end of February. The end shows a bit how this image was created.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the wedding of Jen and Joseph along with a few good sailing friends. Here are a few photos:
Getting my Laser ready for the spring and I’ve found that an ant colony has taken up residence on it.
After standing on the sidelines for 3 years cheering on friends and family I finally joined the 30,000 people who signed up and ran the Monument Avenue 10k. Here’s my time and some pictures of running in the rain.
Here I am running the 2012 Ukrops Monument Avenue 10k Presented by Martins.
With all the driving I do for sailing and ECU football I’ve really wanted a new car with a little more space and better mileage than the focus was getting. I knew a 2012 Diesel VW Jetta SportWagen with a manual transmission and a sunroof was the perfect car. After a big of digging I found one in Charlottesville. I’m really looking forward to being able to cartop the Laser to some distant regattas in Massachusetts and Long Island this spring and avoid the tolls.
On March 4 I shot this film in Annapolis with the Severn Sailing Association Laser Fleet. I was on the committee boat with a camera and then we had 5 GoPro cameras on various boats getting footage. Thanks to Dorian, Luke, Eric, Carlos, Reid and Bob for helping out!
