Cedar Point Yacht Club hosted its largest-ever One Design Regatta June 1-3, as a record 106 boats and 560 sailors competed in eight Classes. Fickle breezes and constantly changing seas created challenges on Saturday, as sailors worked through periods of dead calm followed by a thunderstorm that roared across Long Island Sound from the north. On Sunday, brisk winds across the circle courses southeast of Compo Beach made for more favorable conditions, and more races were completed. The J/70s also raced for their Long Island Sound Championship. Brian Keane’s Savasana won this title by finishing first in three out of five races. Joel Ronning’s Catapult placed second, and John & Molly Baxter’s Team Vineyard Vines third. CPYC encourages amateur sailors and gives a special Corinthian Team honor to those who race non-professionally. Six of the J/70 teams qualified as Corinthian, and the winners were Andrew and Melissa Fisher of Greenwich. Thanks to the HamletHub for this report.
