What about Pterobyte?
PTEROBYTE, Jim Baldwin, 6th in the PHRF A3 fleet at Screwpile. Pterobyte won a tie breaker in their battle with Priority One (Ron Spicuzza) in the overall standings by virtue of having finished 2nd in the second race of the regatta. SBRNYCU just plain missed Pterobyte when summarizing final regatta standings in Thursday’s issue. Make no mistake, they were there. And, they raced tough in a very tough fleet.

Jim and crew had their work cut out for them in the PHRF A3 fleet, with a lot of Olsons and Frers and the always dangerous MORC killer, “Remedy” in their class. And huge congrats for their finishing in the top half of their fleet on their first attempt at Screwpile. Screwpile is a “Bring Your A-Game Only” event. (see front page 7.26.09 story).

Major props to Jim and crew for coming up from Deltaville to do the event. Like an idiot I didn’t get a chance to catch up with Jim, even though I stumbled around the dock one evening, post-race, trying to find “Pterobyte,” and missed his phone call at the party because the band was too loud. Anyway, that’s my excuse.
