As the sun rose upon the beautiful shores of Lake Macbride, eager sailors from Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota and Nebraska gathered for the Davis Cup. We were blessed with beautiful winds pushing waves from the crisp water. Despite the cold air and water, three full rotations were completed on Saturday. There were several victims to the sporadic puffs, leading to multiple capsizes. However, all the teams managed to get through the day. Wisconsin leads the group, followed closely by Minnesota and Iowa. More sailing tomorrow. Report time is 0900.
Davis Cup wrapped up with one rotation of light wind sailing. Minnesota finished first in both A Fleet races and Iowa took the bullets in both of the B Fleet races. Thanks to all of the volunteers who worked on the RC and helped this weekend. We hope to see everyone return to Lake Macbride for The Hawkeye Invite in the spring.

The following chart shows the relative rank of the teams as of the race indicated. Note that the races are ordered by number, then division, which may not represent the order in which the races were actually sailed.
The first place team as of a given race will always be at the top of the chart. The spacing from one team to the next shows relative gains/losses made from one race to the next. You may hover over the data points to display the total score as of that race.
