Lake Max Fall Regatta

With a forecast breeze of 5 kts SSE, the RC left the dock at 0930 with the fleet for a 1000 start. However by the time first warning was to sound, the wind had dropped to 1-2. By 1030 there was no wind at all, and postponement was moved to shore. Swimming and homework were the most popular activities, lunch at 1145 to 1230. The wind finally came up at 1300, blowing 3-6 SSE. Racing started at 1330, with 5 races for A and B fleets run before ending the day at 1700.

A forecast breeze of 5 kts SSE, clouds and rain in the forecast was accurate. The RC left the dock at 0930 with the fleet for a 1010 start. Races 6A and B were run in 3-6 kts SSE. The wind built in to 8-10 for races 7-8A. During rotations to B fleet, a storm front hit the lake, and winds went up to 12-17 kts with rain. The RC boat was frequently dragging anchor, and multiple capsizes near the start line caused a delay in getting 7B off. The wind then picked up to 18-22, the rain intensified, and the PRO called it a day at 1230. Total races run for the regatta were 6 for each fleet.
