Starting with light wind on a downwind start, it was uncertain that the fleet could reach Sharp's Island Light in time. As the wind increased, the rain became more intense saturating all crews. Strong but manageable gusts faced the boats on the approach and return from the Lighthouse. All boats made the turn. As the wind shifted to the east, it became necessary to tack back to Cambridge. A wet and windy day.
Congratulations to the. Branden Spear and the crew of Gabrielle, the winners of the 2023 Choptank Cup.
