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.

WHAT’S YOURS FOR NOT DOING SCREWPILE?
