SAISA Lake Crabtree Open

The Lake Crabtree Open Regatta was hosted by the Research Triangle Park (RTP) High School Sailing Program at Lake Crabtree in Morrisville, NC. A total of six teams competed. The team listed as Carrboro High was actually a composite of Carrboro High and Cardinal Gibbons JV; the team listed as East Chapel Hill High was a composite of East Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill High, Athens Drive High and Voyager High; and the team listed as Wakefield High was a composite of Wakefield, Green Hope High, Cardinal Gibbons and Durham School of the Arts JV. The weather was a brisk 44-59 degrees, with wind initially out of the Southeast, shifting gradually to the Southwest over the course of the day with big 30 to 40 degree shifts during most races. Velocities varied substantially across the lake and during the day from 0 to 8 knots with gusts to 10. Six races were completed in each division for a total of 12 races. All courses were WL with close and competitive upwind finishes. There were no protests filed.

Many thanks go to the Carolina Sailing Club for our judge, Steve Cardoze, the PRO, Alan Backus, and the race committee and to all the parent volunteers who set up and ran the regatta and donated and served a delicious hot lunch!

The following chart shows the relative rank of the teams as of the race indicated. Note that the races are ordered by number, then division, which may not represent the order in which the races were actually sailed.

The first place team as of a given race will always be at the top of the chart. The spacing from one team to the next shows relative gains/losses made from one race to the next. You may hover over the data points to display the total score as of that race.
