I thought I’d pass along the attached photo of my Calypso docking
at Nantucket. The picture was taken by the Figawi Race photographer after
our Hyannis to Nantucket regatta Memorial Day weekend of 2003. It was a
cold and drab weekend with much rain. Fortunately this year’s the weather
was just about perfect. The Hyannis Yacht Club does a great job hosting
this event every year.
The Figawi (As in “where the _____ are we”) is Cape Cod’s big sailing
kick-off regatta of the season. We had over 220 boats this year. Calypso
acquitted herself quite well placing second in her 15 boat division on the
race to Nantucket and first in the return race to Hyannis. (Significantly
less boats do the return race, but among the boats in the return race was
the victor of the Hyannis to Nantucket race. |
