Apparently Rush Creek marks are not the same as the Bayview/Chandler marks.  Learned this one the hard way.

One of the newest members at Rush joined us last night for the race.  David hopped on the an Olson for the first time and learned how uncomfortable the boat is real quick.  One of the cup holders that broke during DRW cut a pretty good chunk out of his calf.  Sorry Bro.

As I was saying, we were to race to the the Sunnyvale mark, then to heath and finish at RCYC.  At B/C the Sunnyvale mark is the third buoy from the shore, but RCYC uses the fifth buoy.  We rounded the mark last needless to say.  But thanks to David’s skills we did not finish last.  We ended up right in the middle of the fleet.

I now have in my possession, both sets of what marks are what.  The RCYC and the B/C versions.  We were too busy to take pics.
