It was a colder day but the wind did not disappoint at Eagle Creek. Average wind was 6-10 knots with gusts reaching 14-15 knots. The conditions were extremely gusty and shifty, with large oscillations in wind directions. Since racing started later today, A fleet completed 3 rotations while B fleet only completed 2 rotations.
Wind was much lighter today at 2-6 knots, but conditions were extremely shifty. Racing started late today as sailors struggled to sail out of the channel leading into the reservoir due to light and shifty conditions. The first B fleet race was sailed at usual, but the course had to be shortened to a 2-legged race for the next A and B rotation. Racing concluded after 8 A fleet and 8 B fleet races. Congratulations to all winning teams, and a huge thank you to John Anderson, our amazing PRO who went out early to set courses for the sailors, Karl Guerra, our safety officer who kept watch over the sailors for the entire weekend, and lastly all our volunteers on safety, RC, and on land.
