Saturday was a cold day on the Severn River, but it was nearly perfect for team racing in all other accounts. The wind blew from the NW all day at 8-13 knots, allowing PROs Kyle Assad and Brendan Healy and their team of Midshipmen to run 108 races on two courses, almost completing the 16 team round robin. No protests were filed on land, because our team of umpires were out there all day while snow flurries fell, keeping things fair and honest. A huge thanks goes out to ChUmp Rob Overton and his team of Jeff Borland, Andrew Cole, Doc Sullivan, Larry Sill, David Clinnin, Scott Kirwin, Carol Robinson, Joel Labruzetta, Alana O'Reilly, James Allsopp, Cole Allsopp and Sam Stokes.
Sunday's weather served up more of the same, with cold temperatures and NW winds allowing for more perfect team racing. The wind was the strongest we saw all weekend on Sunday morning and the teams had trouble adjusting to maneuvering in the increased pressure, leading to more fouls than we had seen earlier. After the round robin was complete, we heard a few protests before moving into gold and silver round robins. Congratulations to the Charleston Cougars who sailed well throughout the weekend to claim victory int he 2013 Graham Hall Team Race.
