      1. Glenn Smyth Jr sailing a Laser lead from the start in his LaMans style start (a very late arrival meant running like mad to launch with help from our Stewards of the day).

      3. They were followed by Lightning 14890, Keppel/Hoffer;
      4. then Sails Force George Bader;
      5. Mike Bolf on a J80;

      7. Mark Evans with a spinnaker halyard malfunction on his J22.  Did anyone really win?  

When back on the pier Allan Crew let us all know that we rounded the wrong mark!  D'oh!  Is that appropriate in a Bart's Bash event?
