FINAL RESULTS
ICSA Sloop National Championship the Cornelius Shields Jr. Trophy Fort Worth Boat Club Ft. Worth, TX One of the best ways to determine a true champion, is to test them in a variety of conditions, this past weekend was one of those championships. Friday was relatively cold (50), with winds in the high teens to low twenty's, with several guts in the 25-30 range. Saturday was light, ten or less, with only three quality races complted. And Sunday morning was even lighter, a zero to five drifter, before filling back in to a very nice ten to twelve. Winds were from the south between 150 and 190 for the whole weekend (the normal direction fro Ft. Worth), it was also relatively puffy (also normal), rather then well defined wind lines or regular oscillations moving across the course. It was a relatively clean regatta, with only 2 protests; a port/starboard between Navy and Hawaii and an incident during the start of race 8 between St. Mary's and BC (this decided the regatta). 1 redress was granted to St. Mary's when their headstay broke on day 1 (The Boat Club thanks then for their seamanship and ability to save the mast with no permanent damage) and 1 redress was denied to Navy, wanting race 8 thrown out on account of light air. Thanks to the FWBC for continuing their long tradition of quality racing and hospitality, it's Commodore Karen Smith, PRO Herman van Beek, Board Member Finlay Higgins, the jury of Bryan Dyer, Mark Smith, and Mike Lattimore, ICSA Rep Charles Higgins, Glennon Stratton of GST Photos and the club staff.
