Congrats to Sarah Streater and Robbie for the fine sailing this weekend. Ben Moon led Bob Hodges and the rest of the A Cats around the course, and breakfast with Darrin and Matthew this am was family fun. By the way, Laura and Ding were there to sustain the credibility of the F 18. The C2 team had a bit of trouble staying on the boat yesterday :-) but led the way at the first weather rounding in today's only race. The N 17 looks real close to the F 18 so our provisional rating turned out fair to all.
Nigel and Emily (Viper) were in second after four races yesterday, but a wind arrival delay this morning prevented them from moving up the ladder. Sarah and Robbie nailed it with Taylor and Katie in second. Laura and Dave finished a strong third.
Maybe NACRA will consider allowing rudder wings on the N 17. The A cats have them for stability during bear aways when going airborne.
Elapsed times will be forwarded to US Sailing for review.
