*Saturday:* Sailors arrived to the Merrill Family Sailing Center with a great southerly breeze that was building. Two A Division races were held in great conditions. During the rotation breeze started to pick up quickly as a front was moving in. Race 1B was canceled at the weather mark and sailors went in to wait for the system to pass. Sailors headed back on the water for racing in a light southerly breeze and two B races were completed. We have a great forecast out of the North tomorrow and will hope for a lot more sailing to be had.
Thanks to Big Red sailors Colin Keil '15, Brad Barth '16, Della Bradt '12, and Robert Suriani '16 for assisting with the Race Committee. *Sunday:* The great forecast wasn't so great and we got off to a slow start at the Cornell Fall Open. A division was postponed on the water until a light northerly filled in. Two races were completed. B division headed out on the water and were able to complete two races, the second of the two in some heavy rain. When the rain passed, so did our chance to get anymore racing in and the regatta was called with 4 races completed in each division. Congratulations to Buffalo for winning the event followed by Stevens and Cornell. Thanks to Big Red sailors, Becca Macies '14, Quinn Howes '16, Brad Barth '16, and Devon Furlong '13 for assisting with the Race Committee. -- Brian Clancy Cornell Sailing Head Coach Merrill Family Sailing Center 1000 East Shore Drive Ithaca, NY 14850 781-724-2581 Friends of Cornell Sailing Inc. ________________________________________________ maisa mailing list [email protected] http://www.collegesailing.org/mailman/?listname=maisa Unsubscribe: Send a blank email to [email protected]
