Summary

Saturday, October 6:

This regatta is sailed in memory of Thomas E. Curtis Jr. Georgetown '68. He was a great friend to all who new him and a very accomplished sailor whose life was cut short in a tragic accident while racing his yacht Obsession in the 1979 SORC race. Tom is a member of the GU athletics hall of fame.

Saturday - 8 races were sailed in each division. The day started off with light SW winds that switched SE and increased to 10mph. Around 1pm a front came through and the winds switched to NW and increased to 15mph with some higher gusts. There were multiple capsizes and a few breakdowns. 

Thanks to all the Georgetown sailors who helped out. 

Sunday, October 7:

Light Rain and light winds were the story today. Four races were sailed in each division. The last four were sailed in 1-6 mph. Two protests were filed resulting in 1 DSQ

Thanks to all the Georgetown Sailors for running races, moving marks, rescuing sailors and fixing boats.
