28th Annual Jessica Uniack Memorial Beach to Bay Race – Overall report

by Rick Roberts on 25 Jul 2015
(L-R back row) Alex Uniack and LBYC Sailing Director Jess Gerry stand with the Sabot C3 top five finishers (l-r front row) first place, Paige O’Dell, Alamitos Bay Yacht Club; second place, Lydia Sheridan, Long Beach YC; third place, Alexander Russell, Seal Beach YC; fourth place, Scott Pearl, LBYC and fifth place, Cooper Laws, Dana Point YC. Rick Roberts
Paige O’Dell of Alamitos Bay Yacht Club was the first to finish Thursday in the Sabot C3 class and was awarded the Jessica Uniack Memorial Beach to Bay Race perpetual trophy for first place in the largest class in this year’s 28th annual event hosted by Long Beach Yacht Club, sponsored by Bellingham Marine and supported by Sailing Pro Shop, Gladstone’s and Ganahl Lumber.

More than 180 young sailors ranging in age from seven to 17 were greeted by an overcast morning with virtually no breeze - contrary to local weather forecasts - and waited for nearly two-and-a-half hours before the wind finally began to build and they were able to start racing.

Because of the time delay and the - still building - light breeze, Principal Race Officer Jess Gerry chose to shorten the usual five nautical mile course to about half that distance so that the sailors could get to LBYC for the pre-planned post-race party and ceremonies.

“My ultimate enjoyment, Gerry said, “is seeing all of these sailors, some of which are seven or eight year olds who began sailing this summer, racing in this event and seeing how proud their parents were.”

The Naples Sabot made up the majority of the fleet which also included Optimists, Club FJs, Lasers and the MicorKat catamarans, new to this year’s race. Most of these classes sail in bays and occasionally on the ocean, but this is the only junior sailing event of the year where the eight-foot-long Sabots ever venture out on the ocean.

In addition to O’Dell’s first place finish in the Sabot C3 class, other first place finishers were Charley Snyder, Alamitos Bay Yacht Club, in the Sabot C1; Jacob Malonzo, LBYC, in Sabot C2; Jason Winn, Huntington Harbor Yacht Club, in Sabot A; Bobby Little, ABYC, in Sabot B; Richard Rychlik, Jr., Cabrillo Beach Yacht Club, in the Optimist class; Jessica McJones and crew Gavin McJones, California Yacht Club in the CFJ class; Ryan Schack, ABYC, in the Laser class; Peter Sangmeister, LBYC/ABYC, in the Laser Radial class and Luke Melvin, ABYC, in the new MicroKat class.



The event is named for Jessica Uniack, a tireless volunteer and supporter of junior sailing who died tragically in 1994. Her husband Bill and sons Billy and Alex carry on her work with this event that began in 1988 and was renamed in her honor in 1995.

A former Junior Sailing Director at LBYC, Alex pitched in both on and off the water by setting race marks, coaching sailors and helping to hand out the hardware at the trophy ceremony.

Better than most, he understands the organization and support that is required to hold a junior sailing race of this size and the positive impact it can have on a young sailor and their family.

“Thank you to Bellingham Marine for providing the T-shirts,” Uniack said, “and also to Sailing Pro Shop, Gladstone’s and Ganahl Lumber for providing donations for the raffle prizes. Thanks to Jess and his crew for doing an outstanding job, especially considering all the curve balls.

“Thank you to all the participating clubs. I know it’s a long day, but it’s all worth it in the end. Special thanks to Dana Point and Cal yacht clubs for making the trek. It’s a really long day for those folks.

“Most importantly I wanted to thank the parent volunteers. My mom was constantly volunteering and helped make our sailing experiences and events like this great. It’s the parents that do the driving, the hauling and everything else that goes into the day. And it’s the parents who create these events. Thanks for choosing to support this event. These are your clubs, your programs and events. Positively contributing to them only makes it better for everyone.”

Results are provisional as of 9:24 on July 24, 2015
