Saturday was a wash with the wind showing up only long enough for all of us to get to the course. Sunday, we got one long race in in streaky wind. I have the results at home but F18 was Lennard/Lennard, Wise/Wise, Kohl/Suprenant. Wise beat us with a last minute puff on the other side of the finish line. Olie took the open spin on his double handed Blade but I don't recall how the rest of it shook out. I believe it was all Blades in the top three. In addition to the Blades, open spin had 2 I20s and a Supercat 20TR.
It was a huge fleet and great to see such a terrific turnout at a local regatta again.

Posts: 12,310 South Carolina | yeah - same here. The leading I20 was 8 minutes in front of the lead Blade and was corrected over by 3 minutes. Granted, it was light air lake sailing...but still.

Posts: 3,116 Annapolis, MD | Try rescoring the regatta using the F18 numbers..... Bet it makes more sense then... (your best guess of the average experience and skll assesments of the sailing teams)
Alternatively.. What is the rating that the I20 would have needed to win?
In the end... the F16 sailors can individually opt to use any faster (then their published) rating they want for the regatta.
