Topic: Fall Series - Yes or No
The last two weeks we have not had enough sailors to go out and race. Granted the weather has not been ideal. I hope we can rustle up a few bodies before the season is over.

Topic: Sunfish Masters
We had two perfect sailing weather days for the 2011 Sunfish Master's regatta on Sept 10th and 11th - 5 to 10 knots with flat water. Thanks to Doug Warren for a great job organizing the event.

Topic: Windy Sunday
Nine boats went out today (Sunday) with a forecast of 20 to 25 knots later in the day. The Waukegan Harbor weather site showed 15 with gusts to 20 at 3:00 PM when we were out so the forecast was close. There was a debate about sailing tomorrow (Monday) with forecasts to 30 knots. 30 knots was the near shore forecast listed Sunday morning, they increase the forecast late Sunday to 35 knots, and as of late Sunday night the near shore forecast now says 40 knots. I have made other plans. I will be curious what the sailors find when they get to the beach on Monday. And the wave forecast is 8 to 12 feet - near shore. Don't get too close!

Topic: Sunday Races
It looked discouraging with Sunday morning storms. Then 6 sailors showed up at the beach with a view of glassy water. Someone noticed rippled water on the horizon and it was headed our way. We finally got some very nice wind ( 6 - 8 knots) and flat water. We had five races, but had to change to the course 4 times with wind coming from the Northeast, then East, then Northeast, then North. The Near Shore weather forcast said the wind was supposed to be 10 - 20 from the Southwest, then 10 out of the West - not very accurate. Anyway it was a great day for sailing, and hope all of our Mac Race and Sunfish North Americans travelers return to sail next week.
