Arriving at Trouper 2 mid afternoon, I began my adventure with a rejuvenating nap. When I awoke, there was much cacophony in the bay as the Wednesday night racers began rigging up and heading out to the start line. With a strong wind warning posted and winds expected out of the Southwest at 20 - 25 Knots, it was time to go. Not bothering with the staysail, I set the main and spent the next couple of hours contentedly sailing in and among all the race boats.

Afterwards I enjoyed a fabulous Keto meal of bar-b-que'd rib eye and spinach salad while being treated to a spectacular rainbow!

Leaving the fleet behind. Now that I can't store my RHIB at the UVic Sailing compound, I have to leave it chained to T2. Back to rowing the Minto back and forth.

Ah, that's better. Wednesday night racing in July.
