Toogood Pond Monday Oct 27, 2025

[GuyOReilly]

You are all invited for one of the few remaining regattas of 2025 (before the water turns solid).
I plan being there by 2:00 pm rain or shine; if it rains the water level will be comfortably higher.
I will bring a sailboat and a power boat for anyone who wants to give this relaxing hobby a try.

Self Appointed Admiral of the Fleet, Guy

I put it on my calendar.

Admiral Guy, Bosun Paul with his wife Lorraine and I dropped by TooGood Pond today.
It was chilly but the sun was great at raising the temperature.

Here are 3 pictures of my little ACE Sloop by Dumas.  It sails nicely.  It has balance problems (sail area too far back) but can be compensated with trim and rudder inputs.

Paul, Frank and I had a blast at the pond today.
