Fort Walton gets a few extra's for their first Summer Series race!

BEAST!!!

When Race Chairman John Farris saw the Weta's arriving, he offered them a separate start at the FWYC Wednesday Night Fun Race - the challenge - get 3 boats on the line in time. Dave Kleinman and John Luzius and the man himself Chris Kitchen got out on the water in the nick of time.

With the wind blowing a steady 12 with puffs to 15, they blasted around a few marks and finished in front of the yacht club. Was it a photo finish? Did they duke it out? Hard to say - John Luzius was pretty laconic as he described the outing.

Finishing order - John Luzius, Chris Kitchen, Dave Kleinman. This, of course, will be Dave's throwout.

Arriving tonight will be the NY crew, and Dick is working hard to rig the charter boats for those arriving.

What an unexpected perk for those guys...I totally forgot tonight was the inaugural race for the summer series!

WAY TO GO!

Damn, should have been there.
