The 2nd edition of the Barque Eagle Team Race was a huge success, with two full round robins plus a gold and silver round. Saturday's conditions left much to be desired as the race committee and competitors battled a fickle easterly. Finally mercy was called around 4:30 in hopes of better luck on Sunday. The rain and cold returned on Sunday but along with it was a beautiful northerly with ripping current that made for some fun and challenging team race conditions. Huge thanks to Jon Duffett (CGA '11) and John Meyers (HWS '12) for umpiring on the water and hearing protests at the end of each day. Congrats to the Tufts Jumbos for winning the Barque Eagle Team Race!
