District III Championships at Rock Hall YC, Maryland | June 20 - 21 |
Story |
Conditions were rough. The Comet class used the regatta as their
Nationals--18 entries--12 finished the one Saturday race; Only 6 sailed in the Sunday races! Windmills: Race #1 (the only Saturday Race)--Blanton and Noble capsized. Race 2--Sparwasser and Arnesen capsized but finished. Some damage to Sparwasser's tiller/rudder connection required his retirement. Sherman capsized. Harris Capsized on the way out to the start. Noble and Coleman had gear failures that required them to retire before the racing began. The remaining 5 boats all completed the last 2 races...though Arnesen, much closer to the top 4 in the final race, capsized at the leeward mark. Lots of credit to the ever-learning Arnesen team in that they were able to right their boat twice and finish all races on Sunday...no significant damage. Sherman likewise had no significant damage but felt the capsize was an end of the day for his young crew. |
