All the racers made it to Victoria, but a handful of boats were broken. The real start of the race is Sunday at noon.
Besides being stormy yesterday, the marina was empty and this place was lonely as hell. But that was yesterday. Today a motor-yacht club has filled up the slips. They seem to be all in the 30-50 feet range. I’m sure they are nice people, but they won’t be as much fun as the R2AK folk.
Meanwhile it’s SteamPunk weekend in PT, which I don’t understand or can explain. Adults dress up in a fashion style that is Victorian/Industrial/HG Wells. I recently encountered another town that has a SteamPunk festival, but that’s all I’ve seen. Good for people-watching, though.
