Once upon a time, there was a windless day before Thanksgiving on the Thermalito Afterbay. Jim forgot his boat, Paul and Mark brought the Sea Spray (which proved its robust construction by not breaking in less than 3 knots), and Jason and Paul brought the Hobie 16. Jason and Paul, dreaming of the Nacra 5.8 that they just bought in Texas, still managed to eke out a win in a hotly contested race into the beach. Their efforts will be rewarded with the Turkey Head Trophy (click) at the Christmas Party.
