Saturday morning at the Henry Luce Trophy regatta began with warm sunshine, but little wind. The teams all helped W&M and the residents of First Colony make our sailing venue even nicer as they pitched in during our annual work day to clean up the area. Some serious picnic table reconstruction contributed to the effort!
Boats left the docks around 11am, only to return a short time later as the wind had yet to fill in and steady. After lunch, racing began. A shifty breeze made the first few races challenging, finally steadying out of the the southwest and building as the afternoon went on to a breezy 15-18mph. At 4:35pm, race 10B was completed. With a full round robin sailed in each division, and the prospect of light breezes again on Sunday morning, the regatta was declared completed.
Thanks to everyone for helping out. W&M Sailing offers a special thanks to Bri Paxton and company for acting as our race committee throughout the day.
Congratulations to the Princeton Tigers for winning the 2010 Henry Luce Trophy!
