A fleet of 71 one-design boats took part in Cleveland Race Week at Edgewater Yacht Club in Cleveland, Ohio from June 14-16. Seven fleets competed, including twenty Tartan 10s seeking the title of T10 Lake Erie Champion.
Light and inconsistent breeze on Saturday allowed only the J/105s to complete a race. Sunday dawned with winds between 14-16 knots, and all fleets were able to run three races. The Tartan 10s began their Championship on Friday, when they tallied two contests in breeze between 10-12 knots.
The Fleet winners:
Tartan 10: Team IBall, Scott Irwin, 1-1-1-1-3 (7)
J/22: The Jug 4 1, Chris Doyle, 1-3-1 (5)
J/70: USA32, David Ullman, 1-1-1 (3)
