Saturday turned out to be a combined club close-up and racing day. We put away the boats, did lots of cleaning, lifted the docks in the morning, and as the weather turned nice in the afternoon, we set a race course to the South-East, based on the winds of the moment. It was an official keel boat day, with three boats on the line, and dinghy sailors went sailing around the buoys too. [ 37 more words ] http://falconyachtclub.ca/2020/09/27/sept-26-racing/

Thanks to Neill's drone we have an amazing bird's eye view of a couple legs from a race on September 5th. http://falconyachtclub.ca/20//25/birds-eye-view-of-racing/
