March Madness

The annual March Madness Regatta was held out of Royal Vancouver Yacht Club on March 10th and 11th. I won the event and six of the nine races. There were 10 boats racing the results can be found here.

On Saturday the wind was out of the East with a lot of velocity changes. During the first four races the wind was quite light although for the 5th and last race of the day it started to build. On the Sunday the wind was stronger, out of the South and blowing right over the Yacht Club. This made for some interesting and shifty racing. We sailed four races on Sunday.

The race committee did a great job getting off lots of races without keeping us on the water so long that we all froze. Next up it is off to some warmer weather in LA and Laser Midwinters West regatta.
