Saturday the first
race was sailed under clouds in light air. The the sun came out and the
winds died. The Race Committee was very patience and waited until the
wind finally filled in and we sailed in light air for the second and
third race of the day.
Today gave the light
air sailors their chance to show their stuff! While Vicki Sodaro has a
commanding lead with twenty one points, the competition has been very
close with four points between second and third, tie for fourth and
fifth, one point between sixth and seventh.
New York's team of Anne Mooney (Helm), Christina Blaise, Alexandra Hahn
and Nina DeNigris are holding onto second place and the Southern Californian team of Susan Taylor (Helm), Kellie Fennessy, Denise George and Michelle Ondrey,
had a better day today and regained third place.
Anything can
happen tomorrow. Moderate air is predicted so the competitors will have
a chance to sail in all kinds of wind. Tomorrow will tell the tale
between second and third, sportsmanship and shipshape awards as those
awards are running close too!
We've heard nothing
but compliments regarding the regatta, the race management and the land
management. There are eleven happy crews and many support personnel.
Tomorrow will tell the
tale.
