Sailors arrived to South Beach at the Northwestern University Sailing Center early Saturday to sun and fair breeze. First warning sounded at 0930 and a full rotation was sailed by 1130. After oscillating shifts turned into a major down cycle and storm, lunch arrived. Lightning subsequently put racing on postponement for 2 hours. A and B divisions went out for two sets before sundown, closer to 0430, in 70 degree weather with gusts upwards of 20 knots. Rain brought a full rainbow over downtown Evanston before last light. The judges heard one breakdown from Race 3B and awarded redress.
A 0900 report time saw gusts in excess of 25 knots building into the high 30s by 11. The regatta was called at 0930, scores finalized, and awards given. A special thanks goes to our DRO, Rick Lillie, of Chicago Yacht Club, PRO Nancy Glover, CYC, Chief Judge Betsy Altman, and Sealegs. The Northwestern University Sailing Team would also like to thank the MCSA member schools in attendance, boat house staff, Tadgh Martin and all volunteers who showed up to the regatta.
