President's Trophy Interconference Regatta hosted by Boston University
Saturday, April 7: With a delayed report due to crew races, the fleet hit the water at 11:15. The early afternoon brought a wild northerly that brought huge shifts and auto-tacks causing three capsizes. The big shifts kept the fleet on its toes and shuffled up the deck on multiple occasions. The big shifts also led to some serious horizon jobs, most noticeably the Catamount B-division putting a 1 minute and 32 second delta on second place. The later afternoon brought an unexpected easterly with more breeze and cooler temperature. 8 races were completed in both divisions on 4 and 5 leg courses. Big thanks to Joel Hanneman, Matt Duggan, Sally Evans, and William Brown IV for dealing swift justice in the two protests filed resulting in 1 DSQ and the other being disallowed. Sunday, April 8: 10:30 Report Time on Easter Sunday. 5-12 shifty NW breeze. W4 courses sailed with last race a W5. No breakdowns. The sailors enjoyed pineapple and peeps while completing 4 races in each division. Congrats to Yale on a solid victory! PRO Saturday: Ben Greenfield PRO Sunday: Bobby Martin BU EMT's were on site each day. Thanks to Sergey Kozin (rescue boat) and Thomas Belna (scoring) for regatta support.
