Tuesday Evening Series on 5/4/2021
Tuesday May 4 Results (Race 2 of 27 scheduled for Season Series)
Tuesday May 4 was a cool, cloudy evening, with winds initially from the SW at about 6 MPH, shifting to NW at 12 MPH for the final 3 or 4 Heats of the 12 this evening, and leading the Tuesday Season-long Series, with 25 more race dates ending in October. Tonight the club raced short races on short east/west courses for the first 8 races, and then changed to longer north/south legs as the wind began to build and clock to the north. There were a few very light sprinkles due to the cloudy conditions, but not enough to consider a cancellation.
In Gold Fleet, David Steger dominated for the second week in a row, winning 8 of 12 Heats, with Bob Valentine in second, followed by club Commodore Rick Lawler. Four of the 7 racers won at least a single Heat, resulting in just a 4 points separation in places 2 through 4. Very close racing!!
In Silver Fleet, Bob Kalman was the lone competitor, so he raced with the Gold Fleet sailors, moving into an early 2020 Tuesday Series lead over the rest of the Silver Fleet.
