A heart-pounding Day 2! BIRW Race Around Block Island
A heart-pounding Day 2! BIRW Race Around Block Island
A relatively calm opening day gives way to crashing and bashing excitement! Rumors were abound on Tuesday morning that it would be the day Race Committee would send us out around Block Island and at 9:00am those rumors were confirmed. The 9:30 harbor start would send about 170 boats to a single starting area for the 18.5nm anti-clockwise trip around Block Island. (IRC Classes had a 21nm course)…

Perfect conditions to kick off Block Island Race Week
Last Monday saw the commencement of the 50th Block Island Race Week under perfect sailing conditions. The 9:30 harbor gun sent 170 competitors out to three racing circles under blue skies and good breeze. My boat, Cleo, was in the white circle composed of the J/109 class, the J/105 class, the J/44 class and the new C&C 30 class. All told we had 55 boats comprising 4 starts per race. The first…

A Great North Sails Starting Clinic at BIRW
As a kick off to the 50th anniversary Storm Trysail Club’s Block Island Race Week, North Sails conducted a fantastic Starting Clinic for the J/105 and J/109 fleets. It gave all the crews a great chance to make numerous starts in traffic-heavy conditions while allowing the race committee to practice their coordination. Before heading over to the briefing, the crew of Cleo stopped in to the…

Boat Tuning and Practice at Block Island Race Week
Boat Tuning and Practice at Block Island Race Week
Spent a good part of the day Saturday getting Cleo ready for this weeks racing. After clearing the boat of any necessary weight, we set out of Salt Pond to do a few hours of practice. We got a feel for the sails, tacking back and forth until we got our crosses hammered out. Downwind we did a couple dozen gybes, doing inside and outside gybes, various take downs on the spinnaker… windward,…

Another beautiful Sag Harbor Wednesday
Another beautiful Sag Harbor Wednesday
We had another beautiful evening for sailing aboard Cleo in Sag Harbor. At 5pm the winds were pretty light at around 6kts, but gradually building. After rigging the boat, we headed out to the racing area and by the time we got into the starting sequence at 6pm, the wind was up to a pretty steady 10kts. Race committee set a fairly long, double-triangle course which would give us some good practice…

A Wednesday Evening in Sag Harbor. And 28kts of Wind.
A Wednesday Evening in Sag Harbor. And 28kts of Wind.
Wednesday evening I took a little ride out to Sag Harbor, Long Island, to do some racing on Cleo, a J109 that I will be racing on at Block Island Race Week this year. I was hoping to get some time in practicing my spinnaker work but when we arrived it was blowing 20kts… in the harbor! And gusts were pushing up to 29kts. So we elected to forgo the kite for the evening since we were a bit…

2015 Storm Trysail Block Island Race
2015 Storm Trysail Block Island Race
The Storm Trysail Club’s Block Island Race this past weekend marked my first long distance race of the season. It’s early in the season so it tends to be a cold race but we started the day off with sun and blue skies. This also marked the first race that I would not be on my normal boat, Finale, because Tom and Julian would be double-handing in preparation for the Annapolis-Newport Race later in…

This past Saturday kicked off my sailing season in an unusually safe manner. The day was dedicated to completing the Safety at Sea Seminar at SUNY Maritime College in the Bronx. It was a fantastic day of hands-on learning and experiencing all sorts of scenarios we hope to never run into in real life.
The day began as many other sailing days… ditching our various gear and mingling with sailors,…

It’s been a long cold winter in the Northeast but signs of spring are finally here. I’ve been relegated to watching the Volvo Ocean Race from the comfort of my home which has been a fantastic inspiration for getting back on the water ASAP! Now my gear is back out of storage and I’m taking inventory for the upcoming race season.
Next Saturday I’m heading off to SUNY Maritime College to participate…
