21st Annual Cock Island (Sailboat) Race, Portsmouth, Virginia - 21 June, 2008

Banner

Yet another fun filled Sailboat race on the action packed Elizabeth River, south of Hampton Roads harbor.  I crewed on a Columbia 40 out of Willoughby, and we brought home a 3rd place in our class (Cruising 2).  Not quite the finish of last year's race (we pulled in a 1st place trophy) but we'll take it.  There was much fun had by all except for one fellow at the post race party.
