[J22-Fleet 1] WYC Shallow Water!

[John Olson]

My trimmer just came up sick and can not make the districts. Is anyone open to sail on 989? 

If someone wants to drive that is a possibility. God knows there are better drivers out there than me.

I can take someone up to 220 pounds.

Let me know

Ole

  Perhaps this is common knowledge for this time of year and low water, but don't want anyone else to get burned like this newbie did last evening...

  I was approaching the main channel out in front of the public ramp from the southwest at maybe ~45 deg to the channel but aiming to the center.  Just as I was passing the west buoy maybe 10-15 yards to the south of it - i.e. I was just between the two marks - I bumped bottom several times only getting free as I got toward the center of the channel.  

  Ouch!
