Reporting: Day 3 Report From the Great Texas Catamaran Race
Update! June 16, 5:06pm, Surfside, TX
Crews are scrabbling to secure boats... Just heard a hardcore cat racer say, "Dam, it's blowing!"
June 16, 4:30pm, Surfside, TX
Blowing like snot is about the story today. When we hit the beach shovels
full of sand were ripping across the beach. At the 9 am skippers meeting it
was decided that there would be second meeting to determine the outcome at
11:30am. At the second meeting, Tom the PRO, made the call that leg 3 of the
race was called off due to the weather conditions.
We have arrived in Surfside. Wind 12kts, storm blowing through and very heavy rain at one point on the way here. Teams are on the beach and getting the boats off the trailers in prep for the start tomorrow.
