Clear skies, flat water, and light air met 15 teams from 9 schools on the Lafayette River for the Fall VISA Fleet Championship. Winds were 4-8mph with gusts to 10pm, initially SW steadily clocking right to northerly by the time racing concluded at 12:30PM.
The course was adjusted after just about every race. Sailors completed 6 single division races on a W-4 course. One protest was herd resulting in a DSQ for fouling a fellow competitor while jibing.
Congratulations to Bruton High School for securing first place with three bullets and 17 points. York High School was a close second with 20 points, followed closely by Norfolk Academy Team 2 in third with 20 points.
We extend thanks to the race committee and coaches for readily adjusting the course and running consistently fair races despite shifts. Special thanks goes to Zig for serving as PRO.
