   Laser sailing on Puget Sound in Seattle is turning out to be a real
   mix of challenges and scenic images.

   With the tidal current, slowly building wind, sun and rain, the laser
   fleets are being treated to a great regatta.

   over 140 laser radial and full rigs are racing.

   a great mix of junior, masters, women and campaign sailors are taking
   in the pacific northwest.

   they are in from canada, puerto rico and all over the us.

   day 1, many boats could not get to the line for the current. the first
   race was a drifter and the wind did no more and the racing was
   cancelled after number 2.
   day 2, many general recalls and black flagged sailors resulted. after
   waiting 3 hours for the northerly down puget sound, we got in 2 races
   as the wind oscillated across the sound.

   the rain is being out performed by the sun again today. its simply a
   fine day for a sail.

   more later if i can get to the computer after racing til dark.
