2022 Fall Series #4
Frank Gallagher ran the races with Michael Bors and Ben Cole on the Georgetown RBI.
The wind was generally westerly, but kept teasing that it would shift south and then a big puff would come in from the north.

Dana Howe ran the races. Oops, he tried, but the wind only tortured him.

2022 Fall Series #2
David Metcalf ran the races with his team of Joshua as recorder and Jim Greenly and Joe as mark boat. He reports:
The wind was a steady 10 mph (per Windalert), 81 degrees, A beautiful day to be on the water.
Jim and Joe in Mark Boat set up a very good course, each race took 30 to 40 minutes. We were able to run 5 races for the Lightnings and Albacores, we ran 4 races for the combined lasers / buccaneers / I-20.
We used the VHF radio and about half the boats were able to get updates via radio.

2022 Fall Series #1 (Sept 11)
It was a rainy morning, but the rain stopped in time for the sailors to rig and launch. Jim Graham ran three races down by the power plant because the water was high and made for a short trip back to the dock in case thunderstorms were threatening. Twelve sailors in four classes competed.
(Races 21-23 of the Spring & Fall Series)
2022 Spring Series Results
We had 20 races over 8 Sundays. Not all classes competed in all 20 races. To qualify, the boat must have sailed in 50 percent or more of the races in which at least one boat from the class competed. Boats that did not qualify have an # by their number.
These are preliminary pending corrections and interpretation of the NOR.
2022 Spring Series #8 (Jun 5)
Kyra Tallon ran the races with help from Jeff Witten.
It appears the winds were from the east and dying.
This is being posted late. Sorry.
Notes:
Laser 177053 competed but I don’t know who she is. That sail number is not registered or signed in.
2022 Spring Series #7 (May 22)
Dana Howe ran the races. Thank you!
This is being posted late. Sorry.

Notes:
Sail number 806 is listed twice on the finish sheet for I-20s in race 3. I recorded the first finish.
Sail number 67 is listed on the finish sheet for Lightnings race 2, but I don’t have that boat registered.
2022 Spring Series #6
The weather looked like it was going to be a gray bummer but the wind came up to 8 mph and the sun came out. It ended up to be a beautiful day for sailing and we got 5 races in. We started with a 1lap race when the wind looked like it might not fill it, then switched to 2 laps once the wind and sun came out. Each fleet got another 1 lap race to end the day. There were 3 Albacores, 3 Buccaneers, 3 Lightnings, and 6 I-20s. Thanks again to Jess, Dana, and Eva for helping out on RC.

PS: The protest was about using kinetics, i.e. rocking the boat to gain speed.
