Sunday at the Danmark Trophy brought very tough conditions for the race
committee.  Competitor's showed up to a dying Northerly that had some
promise at first but eventually petered out.  A Westerly started to fill
around 10:30, finally filling across the racecourse enough to start race
11A at 11:15.  That breeze held until 1:45 when race 13B had to be
abandoned due to lack of breeze.  Finally at 2:30 a southerly filled in
time to finish race 13B.  

All races on Sunday were W-4s.  No protests were filed.

Thanks to the great team of Coast Guard cadets who helped run races this
weekend.  Their hard work made for the best possible racing given the
trying conditions.  Thanks also to Justin Assad for helping out as ICSA
rep and Judy Krimski for judging.

Congratulations to Hobart and William Smith Colleges for winning the
2011 Danmark Trophy.  Tufts held on to second with Yale just edging out
Connecticut College in the final race to finish third.

Thanks to all the competitors for a great weekend, safe travels on your
way home.  We're looking forward to the 70th Danmark next fall.
