Tuesday Evening Series on 7/16/2019
Race Results 7/16/19
YET ANOTHER great night!! The rain held off (until 9 PM) so we got in all 12 Heats, under cloudy skies at Painesville Rec Park. Earlier (before racing of course!) we had GREAT wind 12-14 MPH, but...it was not to be, and the wind dropped off pretty dramatically just before the Practice Race. So, in a decent WSW wind of around 6-8 most of the evening, we enjoyed VERY competitive racing.
In GOLD Fleet- Rick Lawler had a great night, sailing to a 3-point win with five First Places, two Seconds and a third over the 10 counted Heats. The battle between David Steger, and Mike Wyatt ended a TIE (the first in several years) for Second Place. Each of them had 1 win, 5 seconds, and 4 thirds, while discarding their 2 fourth places - for an absolute points tie.
In SILVER Fleet, Jack Nissen won by 6 points over Second-place Ron Sieloff, who edged out Brad Ferrell in Third. Jack won SIX First Places, and Ron won the other four of the 10 counted Heats.
