3 rounds were raced in a southerly at the mouth of the cove. The wind built and temperatures dropped with cloud cover.
After a short delay in the morning to allow the wind to settle, a fourth round was sailed in the cove with a south-southeasterly. As boats left the dock from a rotation between rounds, the wind got wonky. The course was quickly moved off the dock and a fifth round was attempted. After a few long races and seeing every direction except northeast, racing was called off for the day.
In addition to all the polar bear undergraduates who helped run racing several additional people helped. Thank you to Kevin Elk '20 for helping umpire both days, along with Taylor Martin and Charlie Welsh. Thank you to Chester Jacobs '17 and Connor Ratcliff (Eckerd '21) who umpired Sunday and Mae Speight '13 who helped on the finish boat.
