NJISA 2019 Spring Team Race Qualifier

In the third attempt to complete the regatta, five NJISA teams took part in the 2019 Spring Team Race Qualifier on Monday, April 8th. Twenty Digital-N races were completed in two and a half hours with a westerly breeze at eight to 12 knots.

The regatta came down to the very end when Rumson-Fair Haven defeated Ranney in the 20th race to finish undefeated (8-0) and clinch the victory. Ranney was second with a 6-2 record, while Southern Regional was third at 4-4. The top spot (and likely second place) qualifies for the MASSA Baker Team Race District Championship to be held in Norfolk on the last weekend in April.

It was a league-wide effort to complete the regatta on a Monday with Jason Lutz (CBA) serving as PRO, Mike Ehnot on the finish boat, and Clay Johnson (Ranney) & Dave Magno umpiring and patrolling. Thanks to Dr. Nunn for lending his Whaler for the start boat and to TRYC & OCC for the use of the facility and fleet.
