US12

January 15, 2011

We opened the 2011 season with a US12 Regatta today. There were a total of five entries but because of an accident during initial launch John Cameron wasn't able to start competing until race 6. After a month of lousy weather Mother Nature did a complete 180 and gave us a great day for sailing with temperatures in the upper 70s and breezes in a range that seemed tailor made for the US12.

Shoe, Pete Kruse and Dennis Sharp took first, second and third place, respectively. Results for the entire fleet are shown below.

The calendar said May but it felt more like January. Oh that we could have had temperatures in the upper 70s like we had for the January regatta. It may have been chilly but the winds were good.

A special treat was a large contingent of enthusiastic observers from Riverside.

Thanks to Erwin deRoggenbuke for conducting the event and Mike Clayton for assisting.

Congratulations to Don, Shoe and Pete for their first, second and third place finishes, respectively. Results for all skippers are shown below.
