The start of racing was delayed 1 hour from a 10:00a.m. to an 11:00 a.m. harbor start to let the wind die down and sea state improve. At the originally scheduled start time winds were 20+ from the NE or ENE with significant chop on Lake Pontchartrain. By the time racing commenced at approximately 11:15, winds had dropped to 15-16 sustained, although there were some considerable gusts to challenge the sailors.
Our hardworking PRO, Charles Meade, and his team got off 7 solid races of a planned 9 in variable and choppy conditions. Teams went to the dock every two races to change crews, get coaching and take on water and snacks.
Congrats to the winners of today's event and the teams that qualified for the Great Oaks Invitational to be held in New Orleans in November!
