There was plenty of close racing in the 2023 Narrows series on Strangford Lough. With the breeze moderating after the Bar Buoy race was cancelled and Saturday's big blow things were a lot calmer in the back half of the regatta. J109 Going to Red slipped behind a Glenn that was beating to windward as they slid there way toward the mouth of the narrows in the final race of the series. The Glen class is one of Alfred Mylne classic designs, it is always great sight to see them gliding by you on as you race on Strangford lough. We are extremely luck to have over a dozen of them racing regularly out of Strangford Lough Yacht club (SLYC). The team at bottom up boats hope you are enjoying the sort bits of our close crosses from the 2023 season.
Sailboat Upgrade: Replacing Reef Lines in Boom. As new sailors, we are finishing off some sailboat upgrades and maintenance, to get ready for the waters of the San Juan Islands at the first of June. We have just replaced the Reefing Lines in our Boom. We have only two reefing points: A normal first Reef and a Deep Second Reef. We decided it was a simpler solution for us---versus adding another line. If you dig our journey as a new sailing couple, learning to sail, buying a Sceptre 41, getting ready to sail and launching, we would love you to follow along: Join us on our website at: https://gypseaexplorer.com/ Or on our Instagram Channel: https://www.instagram.com/writerjacks/
