Sudden wind switch brings near disaster to sailboat
The usual Wednesday night sailboats races turned into near disaster as the temperatures dropped from 80 F to 48F in 20 minutes just as the sailboats entered the big lake. 10 minutes later a sailboat was swept into the Lift Bridge as it attempted to make safe harbor.
Fortunately, it turned out OK with help from bystanders along the canal.
