MASSA 2014 Fall Team Race Champs

Saturday saw 10-15 knots out of the southwest most of the day. We completed 40 races, finishing flight 4 of the second round robin. Two umpire boats were provided and coaches umpired the 3rd race of each flight. Umpires were Bridget Nannin (Assistant Coach at Hobart William Smith Colleges), Mike Ingham, Jenny Rosenbauer, and Jeff Sullivan. 18 420s were used for the event.

Sunday we experienced shifty winds and puffy conditions anywhere from 5-20 knots with the average direction being North West. We completed 2 full round robins, 2 gold final four rounds, and a silver final four round. The remaining races for the 2nd round robin and all of the gold final 4 rounds were fully supplied umpires. The umpires were Bridget Nannin, Cory Sertl, Jenny Rosenbauer, Jeff Sullivan, and Larry Sill. The constellation silver round was umpired by coaches. A big thank you to the Rochester Canoe Club for the use of their venue to host this event. Also a big thanks so all of the many volunteers on the start boat, finish boat, and 2 markset boats.
