Tuesday Evening Series on 5/28/2019

Tuesday Series 5/28/19: We had 5 Skippers turn out in each Fleet, for what had been predicted to be a wet evening. At the beginning, we had really unpredictable, at times overpowering winds, then for the middle Heats, relatively nice breezes and sunshine, ending with almost NO wind, and threatening rain. After 8 Heats, with the failing wind and the (looked to be) imminent rain, and thunder in the distance- SD Rick Lawler called off the festivities. In GOLD Fleet Bob Green edged out Vice Commodore Rick Lawler by just 2 points for 1st and 2nd. Somehow, Mike Wyatt bested David Steger by a point, after Wyatt's truly dreadful start in Heats 1 -3. In SILVER Fleet, (I am pretty sure) Ron Sieloff had his first raceday win, 2 points ahead of Jack Nissen. Tied in points for 3rd/4th were Tom Bluhm and Brad Ferrell, with Bluhm getting the place on the "most 2nds" tiebreaker. Notable performances: the aforementioned Ron Sieloff for winning the evening, and Bob Kalman for scoring second place in Heat #8!!. It's Bob's first year racing! Standings will be e-mailed tomorrow, for the end of May.
