Mieco Beach Yacht Club yacht race December 1 2013

 We've been super busy since arriving in Majuro, Republic of Marshall Islands two weeks ago.  Yacht races, fashion shows, cruisers nights, Thanksgiving feast, picinics, snorkelling, kiteboarding and even a triathlon.

Majuro atoll is home of the Mieco Beach Yacht Club http://www.sailingmarshallislands.com/

From left to right: Off Tempo, Seal, Aka and LightSpeed charging for the start line marked by the race committee boat Navigator.
Off and racing in near perfect 15 knot conditions and clear skies.
Off Tempo, LightSpeed and Seal at the first mark.  LightSpeed took line honors and won by a few minutes on corrected time.  Great fun.
