Bastille Day Regatta
It was the Bastille Day Regatta weekend. It is an annual event at the University of Iowa sailing club where old and new member get together and have some fun on and off the lake. We started out with a race consisting of a couple dozen of MC Scows, FJs, and Lasers. It was my first time sailing a Laser and it was pretty fun. A Laser is the smallest one person boat that we have and therefore it is very sensitive and is very easy to capsize. It was not easy, but I was able to stay afloat and even came in in the middle of the pack during one of the races.
