A fantastic day on the Elizabeth River greeted some of the top teams in college sailing this morning. Breezes oscillated from the E-NE throughout the day made it tough for the race management and teams alike. In all, 40 of the 56 races from the first two rounds were completed leaving the remainder of the 2nd round and Final Four for tomorrow. At this stage in the event there are 4 teams with 3 losses at the top and it still remains anyone's regatta to win. Two protest hearings were heard at the end of the day, one for a yellow flag that did not change the results, while the other was a black flag hearing for rule 14 that resulted in .5 a point being deducted from St. Mary's College.
Many thanks to the Monarch Sailors for running the tough races today, as well as special thank yous to Town Point Yacht Club for some great food and Scott Ripley for hosting spectators, supporters, coaches, and umpires on his beautiful yacht, Orza.
