Christchurch Spring Intersectional Kick Off

Saturday began with overcast and temperatures in the mid 40's. A light shifty breeze about 7-8 knots which built throughout the day maxing out at about 15 knots and choppier conditions. The breeze tappered off and racing was concluded at 4:30 after finishing 11 races in each division.

Sunday morning sailors were greeted with glassy conditions and temperatures in the upper 30's climbing to the mid 40's. At the 8:30 AM Coaches meeting it was decided to hold sailors on shore until the breeze began to fill. The wind began to fill just after 9AM and sailors were launched at 9:30, the first race was started in light variable conditions just before 10AM. The breeze built slightly throughout the day into a very steady north easterly.

9 races in each division were completed before the 2PM cutoff for a complete rotation of 20 races.

Congratulations to Christchurch School for placing first overall. Antilles 1st team placed second. Antiles 2nd team placed third.

Thank You to all of the sailors coaches and parents that travelled to participate in a great weekend of sailing, and our Mark boat drivers Bo Bragg & Doug Amthor.
