Lighthouse Regatta

Hosted by Fond du Lac, WI from 6/5/2009 to 6/7/2009

Uneven Weather makes for Exciting Racing

Posted by: Aaron Lynn
Day 1:
With temps hovering in the low 50's and the wind out of the North the fleet got in three races in a variety of conditions. The first two races were won by Willie Crear, with both Andy Gratton and Aaron Lynn close on his heels. The big race of the day goes to Jack and Eric Boatman. To beat three different heavy air specialists and win the final race of the day is quite the accomplishment. Way to go. Willie leads the regatta overall  for now.

Day 2: 
The winds were on and off and the conditions were tough. Aaron Lynn and Don Alteyer took races 4, 5, & 6 with Willie Crear and Susie Stearnkoff following closely behind. With the throwout, there was a 8 point tie for 1st place and Aaron and Don broke the tiebreaker.
