Fleet Race 3 -WQ

A nice day of sailing during the coldest winter... summer in San Francisco. RC set up on time and reeled off 4 races after a practice start, signalled by General Recall. Only one other General Recall, and no PMS during the day. A couple of photo finishes, and some very close racing.

Weather leg distance was 0.75 miles. All courses double sausage, finish downwind.

Wind measured from R/C boat Jungle Cruise was 202 for first start and very shifty through the day, high was 225, low was 193. Estimated wind strength varied from 15kt first race, building to 20kt for the first run of the 3rd race, and back to 15kt for the last race, when the fog filled back in.
