Chili Chase Regatta

[STuma]

After a slight issue with Regatta Network, results are posted: https://www.regattanetwork.com/event/23521#_newsroom+results

What a great turnout; 29 boats with even a boat registering for the regatta the morning of the event while RC was setting the marks. We saw wind from 6 to 16 knots and shifts that ranged about 20 degrees. The Blue fleet finished up just after 2 pm and the Yellow fleet finished up before 4pm. The Blue Fleet sailed the 14.27 nm Bowtie course while the Yellow Fleet sailed the 19.68 nm Star Course.

Thank you to everyone who came out and raced as well as joining us at GBCA for the infamous Chili Judging.

I want to thank By and Brad at Classic Cafe for donating a huge amount of chili for the party.

Thank you to our chili judges: Terri Gale, Mary Miller, Greg Casamayor, Tom Meeh, and Beverly Wright. Their indigestion thanks you. Thank you to Patrick Fiega for loaning himself and his boat for doing Race Committee; as well as making chili for the Race Committee while we were waiting for everyone to finish.

Thank you to the Race Committee of: Kelley Dees, Greg Casamayor, Amy Craig, Caitlyn Tuma, and Patrick Fiega.

Our Chili winners are:

We look forward to seeing everyone on Icicle Series #1 January 8th.
