Greater New York Dinghy Regatta

Fordham and Columbia welcomed sailors into the New York City area this morning with world famous H & H Bagels and fresh orange juice.

Eastchester Bay provided the perfect variety of conditions throughout the day. Winds ranged from 6-18 mph. 17 Races were completed in a steady S/SE wind. 9A and 8B were completed. Racing will resume with A division at 9:30 tomorrow morning. We will conclude the racing at 14A and 14B.

There were three no-shows for this event: RPI, Hamilton, and Stevens. There was a small delay in the racing this morning so that the rotation could be changed.

April Showers Bring May Flowers...

Racing resumed on Sunday with race 10A. Sailors battled through a shifty 6-12 mph N/NE breeze that brought driving rain into the area. There were no protests, but a number of 720's were witnessed by the race committee. Thanks to all of the Fordham Rams, and Columbia Lions who worked hard to run a very smooth event.

Congratulations to Tufts, the winners of the Greater New York Dinghy Regatta. We hope to have another strong turn out next year.

Drexel reported to the site, but did not sail. Their car was broken into last night and all of their gear was stolen.*
