Triton Anchored in Westbrook, CT Sunday Memorial day weekend

Post by jollyboat »

hello gang! I was racing Etchells 22's this past weekend out of Duck Island Yacht Club in Westbrook, CT and recognized a very nice Triton w/ a Flag Blue hull anchored just off the breakwater. The boat had 'cream' dacron sails. Is that anyone that is on the forum. Anywho - nice job with the boat!

"Flag Blue?!!??? pfeh! as if!! ;)

Thanks Brian.
And thanks for the afternoon entertainment as well! My reading material somehow got left behind, so I very much enjoyed watching the races from the comfort of my foredeck hammock.

I was on 1042, I was originally sailing with the Neil Pryde Sails boat with the Canadian country code on the main sail but volunteered to sail on 1042 due to that boat having been down on crew. I had a great time competing against my own team - they ended up second for the day my boat was third. Bad call on the Flag Blue - what color is it?

Wow, thanks those pics are great fun. My boat is in the last picture down with the skipper wearing the green shirt. That is me on the foredeck, in a white shirt securing the "wanger" on the jib head for the run. What a great day it was! Cheers!
