French Creek to Comox

French Creek to Comox

Skipper Mike Kalahar said we had a bad start, it took Myrrh quite a bit
to cross the line as the leg got underway in very light wind.
Fortunately all the other boats had a horrible start and we quickly
opened a gap out front. Mike Montagne hustled and worked hard as he
entertained the crew, pucking as much of the fleet as possible. We
stayed close to shore, toyed with shooting the Lambert Channel slot,
then went outside the islands. We sailed for the finish line with Rudy
driving and the Division 2 fleet trying to follow. Myrrh finished first!
A great job by the skipper and crew. Darlene won the leg's crew prize. A
Myrrhfect day.
