Ida may's Blog – August 2014 Archive (2)
Rumors of a Dozen Skipjacks Racing in 2014
I have heard that as many as twelve boats might participate in the annual skipjack races this year. The list includes: Hilda M. Willing, Helen Virginia, Rosie Parks, H. M. Krentz, Ida May, Lady Helen, Lady Katie, Nathan of Dorchester,Rebecca T. Ruark, Dee of St. Marys, and Thomas Clyde. Wish the Kathryn could be there too!

8/22/2014: Getting Ready to Race
The Ida May has been hauled, painted, and caulked. She is getting ready to race and defend her crown from last year's Deal Island Skipjack Races. The Ida May just might be the fastest skipjack on the Chesapeake Bay and we look forward to sailing. We have a new mast and boom from Cropper Brother's Lumber and we hope for fair wind on Labor Day!
