The 2019 SAISA Singlehanded District Championships, hosted by Ransom Everglades School, started off with a 9:30am competitors meeting. As rain pounded outside, skippers were told of the strong conditions outside, including gusts to 25 knots and whiteout rainstorms.
The first race started around 10:45am, with 7 races completed by 4:30 pm.
In the Radial division, Mateo Di Blasi '21 of Antilles dominated the races, and he was trailed behind by Nicholas Reeser '21 from Saint Thomas Aquinas.
Sailors will report for a 9:30 start on Sunday, with sunny, but similarly windy conditions expected.
The second day of racing at the SAISA Singlehanded District Championships started with races at 9:30am, and by 3:10pm, 8 races had been completed.
Sailors endured similarly windy conditions, with gusts to 20 knots and choppy waters. The rain stayed away though, leading to very competitive and athletic races.
Mateo Di Blasi '21 from Antilles, Nicholas Reeser'21 from Saint Thomas Aquinas, and Javier Garcon '21 from Ransom Everglades qualified to the 2019 ISSA Cressy Singlehanded National Championship Regatta.
Very special thanks to Ransom Everglades School, PRO Jaime Ramon, the Ransom Athletics Department, and all volunteers and Booster parents for making this year's event possible!
