Charleston Spring Coed

Though the sailors and race management anticipated a nice 8-10 mph easterly to start the day of racing it was not to be. Occilating puffs from the north and nearly the south made for a couple hour postponement until the breeze finally settled in from the southeast at around 10 mph. Races 1 and 2 were raced and then both divisions sailed in for lunch. Racing resumed at 1:45 that allowed 8 more races in each division be completed by 4:45. Thank you to Ryan Davidson and his team of Cougars for their patience and finally running the full quota of races. Thanks to Bill Healy and Bern Noack for hearing the 2 protests. Congrats to Harvard for sailing a great day and leading over Georgetown as we enter day 2.

Today provided quite different conditions with breeze from the NNE at 12-20 and temps in the mid 40's. A little rain topped off the chill for the sailors. Unfortunately a breakdown eliminated the FJ fleet after race 12B so the remainder were sailed in the 420's - both divisions. 17 races in each division were completed. 0ne breakdown protest was heard and awarded in A dinvision- thanks to Chris Lash and Greg Fisher. Congrats to Harvard in their 4 pt victory over Georgetown. Thanks again to Ryan Davidson in running some great races with help from a dedicated but chilled group of Cougars! Look forward to the Nationals in Charleston!
