Charleston Coed

The wind on Charleston Harbor was not cooperating this morning, so sailors stayed ashore before ridding the ebb tide to Crab Bank after a 1:00 harbor start. Four races were completed in each division with A sailing FJ's and B in the 420's. All of the races were sailed on course W4 w/ offsets and a gate. The 3-6 knot South East wind faded at 4:00 as race 4B finished. Racing was called off for the day at 4:30, and with no sign of wind the sailors returned to the Marina. One protest was heard resulting is a DSQ.

Sailing resumed today. on Crab Bank at 10:00 this morning in a 4-6 knot west wind. The wind shifted to the south west several times keeping the RC busy. After the first set of the day the current started ebbing and the RC switched to a trapezoid course. During race 11B the wind shifted south and died. Race 11B was abandond. After sending A division on a long slow sail in, race 11 B was started again in a 3 knot southerly. The wind died at the gate & racing was called for the day. We had one protest which was withdrawn and no breakdowns.

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.
