Finals Day - October 11, 2020

Another great day of racing on Hilo Bay. We had 6 boats competing in the Open Fleet and 5 boats competing inthe Radial Fleet. We were able to complete 6 races and everyone completed all races. Adding up how long it took the first boat to finish each race, everyone was actively racing for at least 2 hours (about 130 minutes)... Racing was close in both fleets. Three different skippers place first in the open fleet, and three took first in the radial fleet. Winds were pretty constent from the NW at 5-6 knots (guess).

Awards were presented to the first three places of each fleet (a custom hat for the series, with the finish place). The overall club champion trophy went to the first place finisher in the combined Laser fleet.

FINAL RESULTS (LASER RADIAL FLEET):
1st Place - Rhonda Reep
2nd Place - Diggory Deep
3rd Place - Eben Paxton

FINAL RESULTS (LASER OPEN FLEET):
1st Place - Richard Greever
2nd Place - Dani Meyers
3rd Place - Julia Rose

The club's perpetual trophy went the winner of the Laser Combined Fleet, Richard Greever.

Race Day #3 - September 27, 2020

Today, we had a beautiful day on Hilo Bay. 10 boats were racing, the winds were pretty consistent from the Northeast at 5-6 knots.

We had two skipper changes on the water. First was between Race 1 and Race 2, where Lorie Berkey swapped with Ben Berkey. There was a problem with the tiller, which was messing Laurie up... and messed Ben up, until he figured a solution... The second change was between Race 4 and Race 5, when Gary Morgan swapped with Julia Rose... Not an equipment problem, just Gary seems to think he had enough practice for the finals? After Race 3, Alex Wood headed to the beach to drain water from his boat. He missed Race 4, but was back for the final two races.. Wally Kuencer retired after race 4. This explains some of the score sheets...

This was our last qualifying race for the October 11th finals. These results have decided the remaining open slots for the finials (see above).

Race Day #2 - August 23, 2020

In contrast to last month's regatta, we had very light winds. Our peak wind reading at the beginning of a race was 2.3 knots, and sadly, the fifth race started with 1.1 knots. What wind there was, shifted direction a couple times. Our longest race was the second race, a double triangle course. I feared I was going to have to abandond the race; our Sailing Instructions put a 35 minute time limit for the first finisher to cross the line. The wind picked up ever so slightly on Gary's last upwind leg and he crossed the finish at 32:45; saving everyone from 35 minutes of racing for nothing. Half the fleet finished when our second time limit expired; 10 minitues to finish after the first finisher crosses. The rest of the fleet were scored by the Race Committee based on their position on the course at that time. Race number 5 was a little different course, a half-sausage, around the upwind mark and a down wind finish; in 1 knot breese, if lucky.

Race Day #1 - July 26, 2020

We held our first race day as Hurricane Douglas passed to the north of Hilo. Winds in the morning were light (a couple knots) from the northeast. As the start time for our first race approached, the wind shifted a little more north and we started with around 10 knots. By the second race, the wind shifted to the southeast.. and continued to build as we ran with the original course. For third race, the marks were moved for the southeast wind where it remained for the rest of the day.

The radial fleet started dropping out at the second race and all retired after the third race. The open fleet continued sailing and finished 6 races. The steady wind for most of the race day was 12-15 knots with gusts 20-25 knots. These are conditions which don't normally exist on Lake Hilo. Only three sailors completed all six races.
