Today brought a variety of conditions, from rainy and 8 to partly sunny and 15. We got 16 races done, 8 in each division and will shoot for another 2-3 sets in each division tomorrow. Thanks to the Penn alum Mark Penny for flawlessly executing PRO duties with help from Karl Grunewald and Art Bell from Corinthian Yacht Club. Also thanks to the Corinthian members for the hot dogs and cookies.
Today brought great wind, primarily from the west in the 8-12 range with only one slight lull. We had several shifts which necessitated realigning the course, but they were handled with a minimum of delay. Lots of sailors were able to race in the 12 races - full double rotation) that we had and everyone had fun and sailed cleanly. There were no protests because the teams took their penalties on the water.
Congratulations to the Drexel Dragons for winning the Philly Fleet Race and to the Penn Alumni and Corinthian Yacht Club for running a fine event. Everyone is looking forward to next year and an expanded fleet of 14-18 teams.
