One of the best days of the year at DC attracted an excellent turnout of "poleboarders" and a pair of kiteboarders. It started out VERY gusty, but soon settled down to a consistent SW direction and low 20s windspeed. Reasonably warm; I didn't see any gloves. Layne Peterson was clearly "sailor of the day." First, he ferried out a complete mast extension and base to George Ward, whose Euro-pin had broken. Then, as the session was winding down, he suffered a broken mast, but came up with a juryrig that enabled him to sail back.
