Busy day for the Race Committee - Frostbite racing results for 2/26/2012

It was a busy day for the Race Committee as Sunfish toppled over in strong gusty breeze from the NorthWest on Sunday. Wind was around 10 knots during the lulls and about 20 knots during the gusts. The safety boat left the line four times to assist capsized sailors. Temperatures were mild, at 40 degrees and 30 degree wild chill.

Dave S finished first for the day, with Catherine one point behind in second place. Bill S. took third for the day.

There was some confusion in the third race. Race Committee initially called for the race to be a W2, but shortened the course to W to facilitate picking up a capsized boat.

Race Committee completed 5 races. (T,O,W,G,T2).
