White Rock Regatta Reports
from The Woodlawn Racing Team

The Woodlawn Racing Team was back in action March 18th and 19th at the 2006 Victoria White Rock Cup in Dallas, TX!  Updates on the adventures of our sailing hero's are posted below.


Sunday, March 19th, 2006 - Here comes the water...Normally a couple of feet below the dock, the waters of White Rock Lake were right up to the pier as we strolled out to the club house early Sunday morning.  The rain continued to fall and the waters rose throughout the morning until it was on the verge of coming up through the floor boards of the Corinthian Sailing Club's building!  The dock we sailed off of Saturday was 6 inches under water and logs and ducks easily floated across the board walk.  Our 9am start time was delayed 1-1/2 hours while our hosts evaluated the situation.   The RD stayed home trying to pull apart the wet and matted score sheets and interpreting the smeared ink.  Our film crew from the  Outdoor Life Channel was back wrapped in trash bags.  And yes Ray was back to his old tricks following the hot reporter babe around like a longing puppy dog...  He even had to help her place the "Outdoor Life" sticker on her trash bag raincoat...lol.
     By 10:30am we were on the water sailing in front of the Club house.  With the RD away representatives from the "A" fleet directed the "B" fleet races and vies versa.   Sailing went on dispite the rain and floating debris until noon.  I don't have race by race results yet but here's how our top 4 Pirates faired:  JK - 5th, Bud - 6th, Mark - 9th, and Ray - 10th.
     In a two day stretch, the White Rock area received 10 to 12 inches of water.  People were being rescued from their homes in the city of Garland which is right next door to the sailing venue.  One of our Louisiana racers even commented that this was more water than they got during Hurricane Katrina...  Team Woodlawn is now safely home and drying out in the Sunny San Antonio/Austin area.   Boats, radios and wet cloths sit in front of fans  spread throughout our homes.  Here is the final score sheet for the White Rock Cup:
