After the rain had finally subsided, teams arrived to clearing skies and temperatures in the mid-40s. Racing began at 9:45 in a building WNW wind between 10-14 knots while the plethora of rain created a strong ebb tide. Course 4, Cooper River Cross Current Gold Cups, was used for races 6-10. After a short lunch break, races 11 and 12 were sailed using the course W4, with offsets and independent gates. A flooding tide and shifty winds caused many general recalls and mark changes as the RC attempted to keep racing fair and square. By the end of race 12, the front had passed and was generating sustained winds in the 20s and gusts around 30. Racing was called at approximately 1:15 PM. Thanks to the team of Cougars for their daring rescues in the strong winds and helping run a great event. Congratulations to the College of Charleston for winning the 2012 Charleston Womens Regatta!
