Subject:  7/10 2100 report
From:  "Terry McKelvey" <sensei@###.com>

This report is somewhat late for the best of reasons - we were busy taking Solitaire's finish.  Steve Faustina crossed the line just now, at 23:55:20 PDT, moving along very nicely on flat water and light wind.  And this afternoon Dale Parshall and Giggles finished at 16:39:28 PDT, in a somewhat stiffer breeze, squalls and more waves - thoroughly soaking the race committee.  And we just got our first VHF call from Razzberries, so expect his finish within a few hours.

Other positions, at 2100:

At Last: 23-13 157-47 230M 7-8 kts 110mtg

So as you can see by the numbers, the next day or two are going to be busy!
