For those of you who missed the Summer Games Regatta it was interrupted after only a single race. The short version of the story is that a micro-burst touched down and leveled every boat on the lake. As far as I could see every boat went turtle almost instantly. Thanks to the quick actions of the Coast Guard Auxiliary, the State Park Rangers and the local Sheriffs everyone was plucked from the lake safely (for the most part). I think only two of us made the trip to the hospital.

Many boats were damaged and broken. Hopefully we can get a few patched up well enough for the 4th of July Event which is only a short 3 weeks away.

Sunday there was also only 1 race held before the State Park Rangers kicked everyone off the lake at the first rain drop for fear of a repeat of what happened Saturday.  The remaining boats included a number of Lasers, a Thistle, 2 Swift Solos, and two catamarans (Shaun’s F-18 and a Nacra 5.7 that showed up to play).
