The G.O.T.-Flashes Challenge is up to 1,535 days on the water and still climbing as the sailing season begins to wind down.
We have 2 new awards. Claire DeVoogd has reached the 25 Sail level, and Erika Carne has made it to 10 sails this year. Congratulations to both of you!
I am pleased to report that John Ring has an initial version of a G.O.T-Flashes App up and running, and the Lightning LOYALS community is currently testing it with a view to have it online by the end of the year. We can already tell it will be a vast improvement over our existing input mechanism and will greatly enhance the G.O.T.-Flashes Challenge user experience. Keep an eye out on the Class website for its appearance soon!
In the meantime, it hasn't snowed yet, so Get Out There!
