Due to construction in and around Santee Basin at the US Naval Academy, the 2024 Graham Hall Team Race was held out of Annapolis Sailing School off Bembe Beach. Saturday was a beautiful day, with sunny skies and temperatures in the 60s. We tried to start racing relatively on time in a light northwesterly, but after only 5 races it became un-sailable. After a short wait, a terrific southeasterly sea breeze filled in which built to the mid teems by the end of the day. PRO Gavin O'Hare did a great job of getting off races and ChUmp Jeff Borland and his team of 18 umpires kept the racing clean. In the end 84 races were complete by 5 PM.
Sunday was another beautiful day and just like the day before, it started off with a very light and unstable northerly. After a delay on shore, a light southeasterly filled and built, providing some great racing. The round robin finished up at around 2 PM, leaving just enough time to squeeze in a final 4 round. A huge thanks to the many volunteers on RC and umpiring for helping to make this event a success. Congratulations to the Harvard Crimson for the win.
