On Wednesday, June 8th, 2011 as the sailboat fleets made their way in from the evening races, they were glad to beat the thunderstorm that was coming in from the west. Just at dusk eye witnesses saw a lightning bolt hit a 30 ft ketch swinging on a mooring in McKinley harbor, downtown Milwaukee. " It lit up like a Christmas tree" was how one observer described the event. Within an hour the boat was under water with just portions of the masts showing. www.forespar.com #Forespar #products #sailing #whisker #pole #whiskerpole #downwind #ocean #sea #docking #power #powerboating #powerboat #sailingboat #tutorial #boating #newport #california Visit Our Website! www.forespar.com Follow us on our social media: https://www.instagram.com/foresparproducts/ https://twitter.com/ForesparSailing

The skipper on Going to Red splits the gap between one boat racing to windward and another running down wind in his J109 in the third weekend of racing at the season ending Frosties Regatta out of SLYC on the lovely strangford lough. The early October weather as simply stunning with 8 to 14 knots push the boats around the two races which were held on a perfect day for sailing on the lough. There was only a small fleet racing in the IRC fleet which was slightly disappointing end to the season. After a slow start in weeks 1 and 2 GTR is not back in the mix with two race wins on day 3 of the regatta.
