Doug Bohl brought able crew member Bailey along tonight and they managed two second place finishes, a third and a fifth. Sandy Bryson had a second and a third while Dave Vietti accounted for the remaining third place finish in the four races.

We welcomed another newcomer. Last week the new sailor was Dave MacKenzie. This week it was Eric Nelson. Eric is a junior at MSU, on the MSU racing team, and will be joining us for the last three race days of the season. Eric acquitted himself well in a borrowed boat and makeshift rig sailing in an unfamiliar class. In his second night with the group, Dave is showing good progress. Time in the boat will make both excellent sailors.

While doing this project, Larry ran into an application of the "Measure twice, cut once" rule. Here is the story in Larry's words: "Late Sunday afternoon, Pat Dolan and Mike Moody assisted me in getting the old refrigerator out of the LSC kitchen - but to do so we had to remove its two doors. Before making arrangements last Friday to put a deposit on the replacement refrigerator, I had measured to make sure the new unit would slide into the 30 inch space between the corner of the kitchen counter and the door frame. However, with the problem we had removing the old refrigerator in mind, before making full payment, I again measured the depth and width of the replacement refrigerator, as I had picked the bigger of the 2 units in the same price range. I am pleased to report that there was no problem. G & W Maytag delivered the replacement unit this morning and it squeezed into its new home without having to remove its doors, though it is a wider unit."
