Cazenovia Fall Open

Sailors arrived at Willow Bank Yacht Club to barely any breeze to even get off a race. After some delays, the wind hit the 3 knot minimum. Race Committee was quick in setting a course and getting one race per fleet done. The Race Committee was also very proactive in adjusting the course to suit wind conditions before and after each race. The day ended at 2PM when the forecast showed a bleak drop in wind. A huge thanks to Willow Bank Yacht Club as well as SU Sailing members for providing breakfast, lunch, and activities for the competitors.

Willow Bank Yacht welcomed sailors for the same report time of 9AM. Boats were immediately rigged and out on the water in a timely fashion. Shifty winds made the mark setting a bit difficult, but they were strong enough to get off more races. The wind was from the South in the morning and eventually shifted Southwest throughout the day. As the wind shifted, the SU members in charge of setting marks were prompt on making the best course possible. Seven more races were completed by the 3PM deadline. Thank you to all the SU families and Alumni who came to help support this regatta and to the Willow Bank Yacht Club For being such a great host. As well, we would like to thank one of our founding members, Harmen Rockler, for attending and helping set marks.

Congrats to Queens University for Winning this year’s Cazenovia Fall Open once again!
