Lavallete Spring Regatta

Today I sailed the Lavallette Spring Regatta in Lavallette, NJ.  This annual event was well attended with about 20 local sailors going at it.

We sailed five races in a nice building sea breeze.  The first race was about 6 knots, but the four races after that were about 15-16 knots.  Combine that with 85 degree temperatures and plenty of sun, and it was a perfect day.

I was able to use good starts and speed to win the event.  It was a lot of fun to be back at a regatta on Barnegat Bay, and it was even better to stretch my legs a little bit after the light air from last weekend!

Next up is the Orange Coffee Pot next weekend at Surf City YC.
