of the Marrowstone Point current and to breathe the freshening wind was More Uff Da, who sailed in place for what seemed like half an hour, gaining inches southward against the current. Thereafter, boats lined up close to the

Only two boats managed to break through the depression and continue on to finish the full course, but just like Saturday, the wind came up to torture the sailors. The southerly assaulted with gusts up to 40 knots, forcing many to seek refuge in nearby marinas.

The STYC race committee thanks

Quantum Sails, North Sails, Ballard Sails, NW Rigging, the port of Port Townsend, and Seattle Marine Supply for their sponsorship and beer. Single and double-handed racing

often brings out the best creativity and concentration that racers can employ. "The formula, I think," says Butler, "is successful because (the race is) not especially long, but it's still challenging. You arrive at a place that's really fun."
