Regatta Results
Hi everyone,
Well today had it all…major changes in wind direction, no wind at all, crazy confused sea currents, swimmer on the start line and a massive cruise boat trying to run us over. But it was still nice to be out sailing on a beautiful day. In the end we got conditions that our Rs400 really liked – low wind and fairly flat water.
A couple of notes: it seems almost everyone is in favor of starting a bit later (at least for summer-time) as that is when the wind seems to be turning on. So we’ll try 1:30pm starts going forward.
Would also like to hear your thoughts on using 3-minute start sequences instead of 5-minute to speed things up a bit. I think we’ll take a poll at the next regatta and go with the majority.
Hope everyone had fun. The next event is a Jericho cruise on Saturday Aug 2 and the next regatta is Sunday Aug 10. Hope to see you then!
Cheers,
Travis Lyne
