Oberg

Boats were on the water a little after 10am. B Division started in the Harvard boats and C Division started in the BU boats giving A Division the first off set. A would then proceed to sail in the Harvard FJs and B in the BU FJs. Around noon the wind filled in from the southwest and held from that general direction for the remainder of the day. Wind picked up to almost 10kts. 8 races were sailed in each division. 3 protests were filed resulting in a breakdown and a DSQ.

The wind averaged at about 10kts from the northwest ranging from 3-18kts. 7 races were sailed in the puffy and shifty conditions. 2 protests were filed resulting in one DSQ. A total of 15 races were sailed in each division. Congrats to BC Eagles for winning the regatta.

Northeastern would like to thank Harvard University and their sailors for allowing NU to host the Oberg from their facility. A special thanks to Coach Mike O'Connor for running the regatta. He was able to get off 45 races across 3 divisions. We would like to thank BU and their sailors for allowing us to use their brand new FJs and especially for transporting them to and from BU. And we would like to thank MIT for allowing the BU boats to be stored overnight on the expanded docks for the weekend. Another thank you to Susan Epstein and the coaches involved in the protest committee for hearing protests as well as Brian Swingly for being the NEISA representative for the Oberg. A final thank you to Colin Henderson and Luke Orchardo for being mark boat and Zach Shapiro for doing scoring and the other Northeastern sailors helping on the dock.
