Rappahannock River Regatta

Post by havliii »

Kathy and I sailed upriver to the annual regatta at Farnham, Virginia. (mostly a Hobie 16 event) We enjoyed beam reaching conditions on our way there. On our first pass by the course it appeared that the windward mark needed resetting as it as mostly a reach.

Here's a short video of the gusty conditions that capsized more than one Hobie. We opted to not use the jib due to the big gusts.
