Yale Women's Team Race

We sailed a few races in a dying and very unstable northerly which conveniently incompletely died for a nice lunch break. The rest of the day we sailed in a cold but beautiful 10-15 knot southerly which allowed us to complete round 1 at 6:30pm. Many thanks to our umpires Graham Landy(CHUMP), Marly Isler, Steve Kirkpatrick, George Atwood, Chrissie Klingler, Meredith Killion, George Eristoff and Sam Merson.

Very similar to day one with a few races completed in a very unstable northerly with a little more east in it. This breeze quickly stabilized into another beautiful day of sailing. the breeze was more easterly that shifted right all day. The velocity was again 10-15 knots. The last race of the second round was started at 2:58pm. Phew! However, there was a three way tie for first place. According to the ICSA procedural rules, we had to break the tie with a sail off on Easter Sunday. Stanford went 2-0 and won the event, Yale went 1-1 and finished second and Brown went 0-2 and finished third. Again, we could not have run this fantastic event without our very qualified umpire crew who added Peter Isler '76 to the team for the day.
