2017 JMU vs ECU Football
It was great to be back in Greenville for another season of ECU Football tailgating with the White Tiger crew. We had a great time tailgating all afternoon and catching up since last season. The game was another story – we lost – but it was still good to be back and see everyone.
2017 Stingray Point Regatta: Stingray Light Distance Race
The Stingray Light Distance Race kicks off Labor Day weekend with a distance race as part of the Stingray Point Regatta at Fishing Bay Yacht Club. I was sailing on Mad Hatter for the day and we knew the weather was going to deteriorate as the remnants of Hurricane Harvey moved into the area bringing light rain and cooler temperatures.
The course started near Stingray Point and sent us straight out into the bay. The ENE wind made it a beat out. We rounded a mark and came back towards Stove Point on a reach under genoa and main. Goin’ was the closest competitor to us and we mostly were able to hold even and stay ahead until we started reaching more and they were able to plane. Despite the drizzle it was fun being out and sailing.
RESULTS
2016 ECU Football vs Western Carolina
We had a great kickoff for our seventh season with the White Tiger and 13th since some of us started graduating. It was great seeing everyone again and reminiscing about how much has change and yet how much is the same.
We were blessed with good overcast football weather.
It was great to be back!

2014 Stingray Point Regatta: Stingray Light Distance Race
Friday I started the weekend early and sailed the Stingray Light Distance race at the Stingray Point Regatta at Fishing Bay Yacht Club on Sam Mitchener’s J/109 Double Eagle.
The course was a 13nm route that took just south and north of the Piankatank River entrance. In our class were Bad Cat, Nanuq, Wairere, Voodoo 2 and Pursuit. The wind was 8-11 out of the NNE with comfortable temperatures and mostly sunny skies.
Our race went pretty well particularly on the upwind/close reaching sections, we lost a bit on the downwind, but still wound up with 3rd place overall. I got to do some bow work which was a change since I haven’t done that in quite a number of years. All in all a great day on the water.

The weekend began with drinks out at Epicenter with ECU and Richmond friends. Saturday we tailgated, went to the game and then went out after the game. Didn’t get the game result that we wanted, but it was still a ton of fun. Thanks Tom and Laura Ashley for hosting us and showing us around Charlotte!
