The insistent rain over the past week carried over to the weekend, as dark clouds loomed dramatically over CSC, threatening to give participants of the Sunday Series III Race 4 a cold shower. It did not pour, but thankfully an eastern breeze filled in, providing a decent upwind leg to Changi Buoy right after the […]
