NWICSA Men's and Women’s Singlehanded Championship

by Alexander Matthew Jones on 1 Oct 2007
NWICSA Men's Singlehanded Championship

Saturday: Fourteen sailors from five schools, sailed 8 races averaging 22 minutes on 2 x W/L's. First four races sailed in a 10-14 kt southerly. Lunch break at 1:30. Last four races of the day were sailed in a 10-12 kt southerly that shifted to the east throughout the afternoon, with plenty of rain.

Sunday: A lot more rain and temps in the upper 50's made for a long day on Lake Washington. Races started in a shifty 5-8 kt south-easterly. The wind shifted way left and died to 3 kts, before it went way right and filled in again at around 7 kts. The RC had their hands full calling off a few races that turned into one-tack beats and resetting the course.

Racing was close and the regatta came down to the final beat. Congratulations and good luck to Paul Stewart of the University of Washington who will represent the district on his home waters here in Seattle. Big thanks to Brendan Fahey UW '06, Hayley Siegenthaler UW '07 and Alex Jones UW '06 for running the racing. And also to Sail Sand Point, LBC and Marine Service Center for the use of all their lasers.
