It was a great regatta with challenging conditions and lots of lead changes and fantastic close racing. For me the best part was see and meeting new and old friends. The most interesting thing I took home from this was the two separate protests that both involved the new rule for model sailing on penalty turns and retiring. It is clear that there many ways to interpret it and some of them are wrong. I will be looking into this rule carefully and asking for the advice of rules experts to see what we need to do to clarify it.

Thanks to all the race staff and thanks to all the sailors for the sportsmanship and camaraderie.

To Doc Greer and anyone else who has photos from the Champions Regatta, please get them to me however you can and I will make a slide show and post it along with the report as soon as we have it ready.

That way everyone can see the pictures and not just those who gave Doc their emails.

Thanks everyone. Ernie is working on his report and we will have it posted soon. He did say it was a busy week for him though, so please be patient with us.
