Easter Regatta Review

Our first district regatta saw 33 boats on the line in full rig, and another 19 in radial. The weather forecast called for light 5-10 winds but the course was set where the land on both sides pinches in creating a steady wind channel of 10-15+ mph. The standings will be posted to the District site soon but here is overall standings for the current/former fleet members.

Full Rig

  • Doug McKeige (Ian’s Dad) 7th
  • Forest Atkins 12th
  • Alex Delgado 16th
  • Ian Mckeige 19th
  • Greg Wallace 26th

Radial Rig

  • Skylar Bayman 6th
  • Chandler Hill 16th

Bruce and Kristin Moore stepped up and organized the breakfast and lunch on Saturday. Doug Mckeige, Forest Atkins, and Skylar Bayman got trophies for their age group standings.  Greg Wallace got the best boat name trophy.
