The morning started off a bit cool and gray with a nice southwesterly breeze. As the fleet of 20 boats headed out to Lake Ontario the clouds started to burn off. The first start was 10:30am and off went all the teams in the shifty and puffy southwesterly breeze. The racing and rotations went very smoothly and everyone seemed to be having a great time! Loads of smiles and even some laughs were heard. Even though the high temperature only reached 45 it was a beautiful day of high school sailing in Rochester NY! Let's hope for another wonderful day of racing on Sunday. Sail fast and have fun!
Sunday, November 13:
The morning started out warm with a nice southerly breeze yet again (warm as in not freezing this is Rochester so warm to us is 40 degrees.) The sailors sailed out to the lake for a 10am start. As the morning went on the wind kept building right into the afternoon, as the day went on we saw a gust up to 25kts. The sailors were having a blast hiking out and planing downwind on the waves. We raced a total of seven races on Sunday and were were in and packing up around 2pm. We had a great awards ceremony with some great giveaways from Quantum sails as well as Rostand. Thank you to both company's for supporting the ACC's. I would also like to thank everyone at the Rochester Yacht Club for putting on such a well run high school regatta. Great sailing by all and we hope everyone had a great time!
