Still another beautiful day!

Welcome to the final day of the NYYC Invitational Cup U.S. Qualifying Series.  Six more races are planned today and it's a spectacular day in Newport, RI.  Not a cloud in the sky, northerly winds 8-10 knots predicted to build slightly before lightening later.  High tide is at 1036, so the ebb tide (which will be more in line with the wind today as opposed to across the course) will be building all morning and really ripping by mid-day.
