Ahoy SLSC members!
 
I hope that everyone is safe and healthy!
 
We will replace the Spring Series Race 3 scheduled Saturday, June 6 with another informal race.  We’ll start at 1:00 PM, proceeding from Lake Auman buoy #6 at the North end of Pine Island (PI) to buoy #9 off Joseph’s Point to buoy #12 at the Eastern point entering Otter cove and back to Pine Island at buoy #6 leaving all marks to port. Bert van Domselaar will be stationed with his Hurricane at the start and will function as safety boat. (Thanks, Bert!)
Under the circumstances, our scheduled Spring Series will not be conducted, but we hope to get under way with the Summer Series in some form, beginning June 27.
Seven boats came out for the informal race last Sunday! Things got a bit dicey, though, with 12+ mph winds, gust to 20(?), and sudden shifts. Some skippers took a break behind Pine Island and one Laser got an early claim on the Turtle Trophy! The Martins’ Precision 15 provided stable support while the Laser was righted and set on its way. A few more boats came out later and sails on the lake finally totaled 11!  
 
A reminder for those who haven’t done so . . . Please send your 2020 dues to SLSC treasurer, Nancy Workman, 3420 SLW, West End, NC 27376
 
Bob Fewkes, Commodore
