Reece's Cup

Summary

Sunday, October 18:

Another stunning day on Mendums, with strong colours showing around the edges. Sailors arrived expecting little to no breeze, but Mendums delivered a shifty breeze ranging from barely above minimum to a somewhat steady 6-8, with gusts around 10, giving sailors chances to keep their heads out of the boat. Several capsizes surprised everyone, given yesterday's experience and today's much calmer pressure. Several Reece's Races and much-needed edible prizes were doled out.

Olin and Babson were no-shows. Thanks to Dave Curtis from HDFA Photography for taking thousands of pictures. Check out his site at: https://hdfaphotography.shootproof.com. Thanks to Sharon Seymour-Johnson for serving as the NEISA rep. A special thanks to Abby Forcier, an alum who volunteered to drive Dave around. Thanks to the UNH sailors who all pitched in, especially the mark boat sailors, Brendan Ballon and Phoebe Alto.

The Northeastern Huskies won the Reece's Cup and took home the Reece's.
