Hobart Wm/Smith Intersectional
Saturday started with breeze from the South at 12-14 knots. This breeze and the moderate swell allowed for some great Windward/Leeward twice around courses. With the threat of scattered thunder storms, the Race Committee called a delay of game between races to let one meekly pass to the North leaving behind a light breeze from the NW which allowed us to finish out the set and call it a day.
Sunday started off with a light 5-7 knot breeze hailing from the North. Around 2:30, a shifty North to Northwest to West breeze challenged the completion of sailing Windward/Leeward twice around courses and Windward/Leeward finish upwind courses until 3:00 when the Lake glassed over and was called a regatta.
The Hobart Wm/Smith Fall event has grown from a simple MAISA regatta into a major MAISA Intersectional. CNU has been a regular at these events since their inception and we have seen the competitive level rise with every year. This year the event featured some of the best teams from New England and the mid-west as well as MAISA. I felt we should have done better than we did and we were in 11th after racing on Saturday. But, while Ben and Johanna’s finishes improved on Sunday, Kate and Jerrica’s fell off. But, this was some pretty tough competition and we beat some decent teams from Old Dominion, Miami of Ohio, Columbia, and Iowa.
