Time to pick your favorite.

This year's event is being held at Alamitos Bay Yacht Club in Long Beach, California on AHPC F16 Vipers. Many thanks to Greg Goodall and Jill Nickerson for supplying boats for the 4th year in a row. Youth event starts today with a clinic and practice. racing Saturday and Sunday. Adult racing starts Wednesday.

I was told by an Anonymous Weenie that it would be Struble followed by Casey in a very close one. I wouldn't be surprised to find Taylor Reiss, Pease Glaser, or the team of Dennis Key and John Williams in the medals either.

1. John Casey, Dalton Tebo
2. Gary Chu, Norman Chu

I don't see a lot of mixed teams in those lists, should we expect to see more of them next year?

I'll take some of that action. As much as I'd like to see our local boys take the gold Struble is taking this one.

2012 is likely to be F18 so no I would not expect to see more mixed teams.

I would expect to see mixed teams only in the new Olympic class following a major recruitment effort by the MNA's for a specific Olympic Class multihull. Once that gets rolling you might see some of these teams in domestic events... Probably a couple of years away.

1 - Matt Struble, Damon Lacasella
2 - Pease Glaser, Jay Glaser
3 - Gary Chu, Norman Chu
4 - John Casey, Dalton Tebo
5 - Dennis Key, John Williams
6 - Taylor Reiss, Matthew Whitehead
7 - Nigel Pitt, Tammy Pitt

Casey, Williams, or Pitt stand a real chance to be a spoiler in my prediction if they get their game full-on or the typical LB conditions get a shake up with a weather system. I don't know much about Chu at the helm...so making a wild guess there. Glasers are great sailors with local knowledge (for what that's worth off the beach at Long Beach where the saying is "even if it's wrong, go right"). I haven't seen anyone make Struble sweat in the US in a while.

I agree with Ding, it mostly depends on the boat being used (think of years when the H16 is provided).

I partially agree with Mark. I do think that the mixed-Olympic-thing will lead to a few additional mixed teams potentially submitting petitions (if they haven't already won a qualifier), as they will need these types of events for training and to put on the resume for the Big O. But, I don't think the boat would matter at all at that point (they will need the event regardless of the platform).

Mike

EDIT: Back on topic for this year... If it blows like stink, I'd expect to see Mark Modderman do well.

I had in mind an entirely different outcome..

My brass balls... your bare foot...

always two sides of a debate...

Struble on the other hand.... no debate!

As much as I'm cheering for Reiss/Whitehead I don't see them in the top 3. They don't have the tactical discipline and experience (yet) especially mixed in with this fleet, but . . . I do expect them to finish high in their first race (bullet?)for several reasons: they spend alot of time on this boat and will have the youth week and confidence under their belt going on now, the fleet hasn't sorted A/B yet, as well as they will know the nuisances of the course. The rest of the fleet will take a race or two to get it dialed in. I do agree with Jake, only difference is I place more confidence in Pitt. Plus, Jake has over 9,000 posts. That's got to be worth something! Right? smile

1. Struble
2. Glaser
3. JC or Pitt
5. (here it gets muddy)Chu or Key or Reiss

I'm going with
1 - Struble
2 - Pitt
3 - Casey
4 - Glaser
.....

I'm also predicting that if the Pitt's get two OCS's, they'll sink the RC boat and head for the airport...

Do we need to be reminded of what took place last year? smile

http://championships.ussailing.org/Assets/Championships/USMHC/2010/results.pdf

The year before that..

http://championships.ussailing.org/Assets/Championships/USMHC/2009/2009+Results.pdf


That might help make the decision.

I'm open and I'm not a betting man. smile

Different boat this year eliminating some of the F18 teams from the competition due to weight.

Hope they will have good wind.
