Summary

Saturday, April 7:

With a delayed report due to crew races, the fleet hit the water at 11:15. The early afternoon brought a wild northerly that brought huge shifts and auto-tacks causing three capsizes. The big shifts kept the fleet on its toes and shuffled up the deck on multiple occasions. The big shifts also led to some serious horizon jobs, most noticeably the Catamount B-division putting a 1 minute and 32 second delta on second place. The later afternoon brought an unexpected easterly with more breeze and cooler temperature. 8 races were completed in both divisions on 4 and 5 leg courses. Big thanks to Joel Hanneman, Matt Duggan, Sally Evans, and William Brown IV for dealing swift justice in the two protests filed resulting in 1 DSQ and the other being disallowed.

Sunday, April 8:

Races were again delayed due to crew races. The sailors enjoyed pineapple and peeps while completing 4 races in each division. Congrats to Yale on a solid victory!
