Chacho: Racing to Port Dalhousie across Lake Ontario

Chacho had a rough start at PCYC during the LOSHRS race 2013. Just minutes before the start the genoa halyard went loose to the top of mast and over it went back down! Darn! Pablo had to be hoisted to the top of the mast by Michael's dad Mike!

After hard work and in a panic we got it done and left the PCYC DOCK racing to the starting line, we made it JUST on time and got the start line crossed! From there we fought all the way finding the wind and best tacks, we kept the fleet in sight most of the time....we got an incredible lift with crazy wind arriving to Dalhousie and we arrived zooming like a jet!!!

We later found out back in Toronto we had conquered a 3rd place!!!!! We did it, Mikey!!

And the blue flag goes to Honour the passing of our beloved Uncle Chacho that went to Heaven in January 2013, sail the seas of the Universe Dear Tio Chacho! Much love and Gracias!! To you! Much Love! You are in my heart....many people know Chacho very well....tell you that!!!
