After a day when the wind varied greatly in strength and direction it finally settled by race time on being, at the dock, 6 – 9 kts., fairly steadily from 350º M. This would have made BG a good windward/leeward course but the flood tide in the vicinity of B at that time was nearly two knots. Rather than having a downwind start, with everyone crowding the pin, it was decided to set the new temporary mark X off the Point Hudson Marina breakwater and make the course SXGXF. The starts were orderly and the fleets were well into the bay before the ferry left, taking an inshore route.
After the start the wind began to soften but maintained direction at the dock. However there appeared to be even less wind around G and its direction was very variable. After the boats rounded there was a fairly even split between those going left and those going right, but it was obvious that the wind direction was different on each side of the course as it appeared from the dock that both sides were headed on their initial tacks. As the boats came back together returning to X it appeared that neither side of the course had been greatly favored as the finishes were quite close together. This week the race was over before the ferry returned.
