Light going upwind at the VX One Midwinters - VX One National Championships Andrew York
In the VX One Midwinter Championship, hosted by Sarasota Sailing Squadron, three races were completed today for 28 teams competing in Florida.

In winds ranging from six-ten knots, John Potter and David Guggenheim have taken the early advantage after posting a 6, 1, 1 for 8 points. Justin Howard (13 points) and Donovan Brennan/Tim Pitts (16 points) laid claim to the top three.

The husband/wife team of Jeff and Keven Eiber took the gun in race one, followed by Howard and then Phip Hallowell. Potter and Guggenheim earned the first of two bullets in race two, with designer Brian Bennett in second and the Michael Norris family in third. Howard notched another silver finish in the day’s final contest, trailed by the Brennan/Pitts duo.

Racing continues through Sunday.
