– A Light Air Race Saturday! –
|
Thanks go to Nick Bowen who reviewed all the logs and scored the Prince Henry the Navigator Race this past weekend. The race provided a challenge for boats to get to the finish line with the dying breeze. Full results are posted at this link. Congratulations to the following winners:
Spinnaker
(Position / Boat / Skipper / Adjusted Mileage / Adjusted VMG)
- 1st / J/109 Vento Solare / Bill Kneller / 27.38 / 4.21
- 2nd / J/110 Memory / Kevin Dakan / 21.41 / 3.29
- 3rd / 27 SE Hawksbill / David Wilson / 18.72 / 2.88
Cruising

- 2nd / Sabre 36 Cetacean / Peter Maloney / 16.05 / 2.47
- 3rd / Catalina 30 Kestrel / Mark Franklin / 14.73 / 2.27
Results are posted for the 2023 Block Island race. J/122 Leading Edge (that FRB!) got line honors and best finish in both directions winning the 1st place finish out, back and overall. The race out was challenging with little wind. Even with a shortened course at 1BI, only three boats finished the race out. The wind gods graced the race back and provided a spinnaker run for most of the way back. Some liquid sunshine kept everybody cool on the way home.
The next event is the Prince Henry the Navigator Race scheduled on 26 August.

Dear Sailors,
