Frostbite #3 - End of Season for Akoni

Painful day on the water. I thought we were doing ok until Easy-Button decided to take us up. It’s not often that we overtake them to windward, so we were pleased to tangle with them…..but that got us too high on the course and the lower boats sped up to the mark as we crept down to it. The rest was history…dying breeze from behind. What’s a short stick heavy to do. Boats pretty much finished by SA/D. Akoni gets hauled out tomorrow, so this is our last race of a remarkably good season. Thanks to everyone that came out to sail with Akoni this year!
