Sodus Bay Open

As teams were arriving at Sodus Bay, thick fog quickly cleared with a northerly wind. It did not stick around long enough to start races, and the Answering Pendant was raised, postponing races. Some breeze crept in around 1130 and teams were sent out on to the bay. With a northwest wind holding around 3 knots, races began at 1230. Wind picked up to 7 knots and shifted to the left after race 2A. Breeze slowly decreased through the afternoon and a total of 8 races were completed.

Sunday conditions were much for favorable for competitive racing. Wind was consistent at 7 knots but shifted directions from the west and northwest, creating challenging conditions for race 5A. Eventually, a consistent western breeze filled in and steadily increased, allowing 12 races to be completed. The wind sustained at 11 knots for the last race of the day.

Thank you to SBJSA for hosting and all volunteers for helping up make this event possible! Many thanks to all competitors who traveled to Rochester to participate!
