NEISA, here is the report from the New London Invitational at the US Coast Guard Academy,
Saturday: Crazy conditions on the Thames river as the breeze started from the NW, went hard W and settled in the afternoon from the SW. Breeze ranged from 3-25 knots with huge shifts all over the place. All courses sailed were W-4 with a windward offset and leeward gates. A-division sailed FJ's all day and finished 12 races while B-division was in 420's and completed 10 races. The divisions will switch fleets to start Sunday beginning with B-division. Thanks to all the Coast Guard Cadets for a great day of racing on the Thames River. A few teams just disappeared half way through the day leaving the rotation in complete disarray. Please if you choose to stop sailing for any reason atleast stick around and help with the rotations, it is poor sportsmanship to just leave. Full results can be viewed on the NEISA website through Tech Score at the following link. http://regatta.mit.edu/s10/new-london-invitational/ Mark Zagol Head Sailing Coach US Coast Guard Academy (860) 444-8507 office (860) 234-4593 cell ________________________________________________ neisa mailing list [email protected] http://www.collegesailing.org/mailman/?listname=neisa Unsubscribe: Send a blank email to [email protected]
