NESSA Fall Funfest (Gleekman Trophy)

Summary

Saturday, October 6:

The first challenge for the race committee was the forecast for wind at 3 MPH all day. As a qualifier for the ACC it was important to get to the threshold of three races in each division to make the regatta official. The first 2 races in the A division saw the wind holding out with manageable changes in velocity and direction. By the beginning of the B division races the wind had begun its movement from East to South. The courses were kept fair with some shifts on both sides. As the set progressed some significant lulls with periods of drifter conditions appeared. With the 3 race threshold in danger the decision was made to keep Division B out for a third race. A Division was able to struggle through the alternating light wind and lulls to complete their third race before racing has to be abandoned.

Congratulations to Fairfield Prep for winning, followed by Boothbay and Milton Academy. There were no protests.
