Watch Hill YC: Horton Race
Course: Reaching 4 mile legs (4 laps)
Kim, Seth and I left Spicers about 0830 with the ebb for the haul down east past Napatree and out the Watch Hill Passage. The starting area was off Misquamicut Beach. The committee set the course for a SE windward/leeward course, with four-mile legs for a total of 16 miles. By race time, the wind had veered the SW, and the R/C kept the course. The race ended up as four reaches, somewhere between near and beam on the outbound legs and beam reach on the returns, right in SeTherin's sweet spot.
