MDISA Fleet Race Qualifier

The MDISA Fleet qualifier was underway at 3pm on Friday with a sustained 15-20 knots from the South and puffs into the mid 20's. We had to adjust the course to the South South West as the day went on and were able to get in a total of 12 races before the end of the day. There was a great deal of sportsmanship on the water as sailors struggled to right their capsized boats which was refreshing to see.

PRO Ian Burman and helper Nikki Bruno did a great job keeping the course as square as possible in these crazy conditions. Also want to give credit to our awesome mark and safety boats comprised of Alex Stout, Brian Fishback and Craig Cobbum.

Saturday started with a light breeze from the West SouthWest at about 5-8 knots with some big right shifts coming out of the creek. We kept the course as square to the shifts as possible and were able to knock out the rest of racing by 3:00pm. Congrats to the top 3 finishers, Severn, Severna Park and Key School as the racing for 3rd-6th was about 4 points all the way to the end.

Thank you to our Race Committee Ian Burman, Rob Vann, Rich McVeigh and Sam Parsons. Also to our chief herder all weekend Joanna Beaver for keeping rotations moving quickly.

Good luck to all that travel to MASSA Gold on May 10-11.
