Sailors were greated at the Rappahannock River with temps in the low 70’s, and frequent rain varying from light to downpour. The regatta had a postponement on shore as they waited for the wind to fill in, before launching around 10:00. Morning wind filled in generally easterly at 6-12mph with gusts higher. Afternoon winds, still generally easterly, built to the mid-teens with gusts close to 20mph when varsity racing was called around 2 due to a miserable rain/wind combo.
On the varsity course, 18 teams representing 11 schools competed in 2 divisions which were on the course at the same time with alternating starts. A division sailed 420’s and B division sailed FJ’s. Each division completed 6 W-4 races. Christchurch School Team 2 ran away with first place with 27 points. Christchurch School Team 1 followed in second place with 38 points. Norfolk Academy Team 1 finished in third place with 56 points.
The JV course had 13 teams representing 5 schools. They completed 6 single division W-4 single division races before abandoning racing around noon. Christchurch Team 1 took first place with 4 bullets and 10 points. Christchurch Team 2 won the tie-breaker for second place with 19 points. They were followed by Christchurch Team 4 lost the tie-breaker leaving them in third place with 19 points.
Thanks goes to the volunteers who make these events possible, especially varsity PRO Alex Jacob and JV PRO Jodi Kelly. Thanks is also extended to the Christchurch and York County teams who hosted and organized the events.
