ok well the sunday race from Kelowna to

Summerland was forecasted to blow up be

a storm late after or mid-afternoon we

started out the race with virtually no

wind as you can see it was very very

light and fickle coming from East the

West the South in dim changed around to

the north a little bit gave me a chance

to put my spinnaker up so dropped my

sales put it up flew it for a little

while then we were back onto the

headsail again and as we got further out

into the race course I did see the wind

was blowing up off squally point so I

dropped my head sail down and put on my

one Tim along with a reef made this gave

me the control of the boat and is a good

thing that I did this before the big

wind hit because then I would have been

in big trouble without having true on

the boat and I was looking for safety I

put in the hatch boards just as a safety

precaution case anything did happen and

we were getting into you I was getting

into trouble so let's just try to keep

the water on the boat if we got into big

big trouble as the race went on the

winds picked up to 35 knots there were

areas or three to four foot waves so it

was an exciting time

I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge

pushed me to my limits and the boats

limits to control everything but

thinking out ahead in advance gave me

the ability to sail safely and to

complete the race several bones did drop

out for safety reasons I was in full

control and very comfortable with the

sails selection that I had and carried

on to finish the race and was very proud

of my sailing abilities and finished

third overall for this leg kelowna to

Summerland which put me in a position to

finish third overall for my fleet

dedicated this race to the disabled

sailing association as what kept going

through my mind was there go i but by

the grace of God I have the abilities to

get around and enjoy everything where

disabled persons are limited in their

capabilities but we the disabled sailing

association has boats that are rigged

for for them to sail allowing them even

though they are handicapped to enjoy my

sport this is what I have dedicated this

this race and doing the race

single-handed to that Association

you
