<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Match Racing Recap- </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>It was a beautiful Monday Night out on the bay,
light air, but warm and sunny which was nice after freezing on a no-wind
Sunday. We had two flights of J22's running, former local gal Katy
Pilley Lovell made a nice guest appearance on Nimmers new J22 as she is on her
way to the prestigious Santa Maria Cup in Annapolis, MD. </FONT><A

size=2>. We wish her good luck.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Even with the light air we ran about 10 practice
starts in shifty bay conditions, I kept the line tight which made for lot's of
light air boat handling, of course our local rock star Lars Hansen with the
crew of Nick Anderson and Johnny P had big huge roll tacks and gybes, always
fun to watch.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Our own Fred Sommers and Ernie Brodie came out in
our little whaler to practice their umpiring skills, it's great to see the
program growing! Thanks Fred and Ernie!</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>As you may know, Match Racing is fully recognized
by the Wayzata YC board and is still a initiative to grow at our club. I
invite all of you to get your teams organized and come out to play- now that
we have a few coach boats and resources we can run multiple fleets at
once. So all you Sonar, Capri, J24 and other OD boats please feel free
to come out and learn match racing. It is by far the best way to learn
superior boat handling and of course get a big rules boost!!</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Next week, we are running the match racing on
Wednesday 31st evening start time 6:30 in the bay again. I will have the
Bailiff and Whaler out, I can take spectators if you would like to watch-- but
once again please feel free to put your team together and join us.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>June 3-4 we are once again hosting the Richardson
Cup Qualifier- we will have some of the top US Sailing judges and umpires on
the water making calls-- the event will be held on J22's this year because the
actual Richardson Cup will sailed on J22's at the beautiful buffalo YC on Lake
Erie. </FONT><A title=http://www.buffaloyachtclub.org/
