My first race was last night. The white crane isn't working. Motors were replaced and the new motor is blowing fuses. I did not want to use blue crane and I did not want to keep the boat at a mooring. However since the SNAFU is gone beyond 'temporary' I asked and got a 'temporary' mooring. I am planning to do a weekly bottom clean.
The PHRF rating has been dropped to 162. The wind condition were pretty variable. Light, none, and then 180 degree shift. We were lead boat to the first mark. The problem is to find it and we have no guide boat ahead. We made the right choice. The wind filled in nicely so the had a nice reach on what should have been the downwind leg. A bit chilly on the lake.
