All,

Good morning from Rhode Island.

Our 2018 Resolute Cup team is sailing well...hoping that continues.  As an inspiration to our Opti Team...we are the youngest team here competing.  2 at age 21, 1 at age 23 (skipper Will Holz) and 1 at 32.

The plan for the weekend is Meg Six tomorrow and Jay Kehoe on Sunday.

As for today, Friday, we have no coach.  Our apologies.  If your student/athlete would like to sail, please bring them to Chicago Yacht Club.  We have High School scholastic practice today.

If anyone has comments or questions please call me.

(312) 213-1181...I am on the water and have my phone.

Cheers,
DG
