MCSA Match Race Championship

Summary

Saturday, October 4:

Sailors at Chicago Yacht Club - Belmont Station were treated to an unseasonably warm October weekend, with temperatures around 80°F and a lighter but shifty breeze throughout Saturday.

Sunday, October 5:

The day started with winds averaging around 15-18 knots and gusting up into 20+ knots. As the wind continued to pick up, Race Committee determined that it would be unsafe to continue utilizing spinnakers and flew zulu for the remainder of racing.

A huge thank you to all the competitors for making the turnout so strong, and to all the volunteers whose energy and support helped make this regatta a success. Special thanks to:

- Darcy Cook, our PRO

- Mike Kaspar, Chief Umpire

- Patrick Burks, CYC Regatta Manager and Umpire

- Ray Groble, Umpire

- all of our umpires in training

Their dedication, professionalism, and time made this event excellent.
