Tuesday Evening Series on 5/11/2021
Western Reserve Model Yacht Club, Results, Tuesday May 11.
Steger, Kalman win WRMYC Tuesday Series Races May 11, 2021 at SPIRE
Western Reserve Model Yacht Club sailed its weekly, Tuesday afternoon race program on May 11, at SPIRE Institute. The weather was outstanding- sunny, even if a little cool with a temperature at race time in the low 50s. Winds were good, initially from the West North, at about 8- 10 MPH, but changed to North at about 12 MPH by Heat 4. After that, the club was able to race the full program of 12 Heats, with about half being over longer, two-lap courses. The competition was the best so far this year- 5 of the seven participants won at least one Heat during the evening.
At the end of the 12-Heat program, in the Gold Fleet, David Steger won, but this time by just 3 points over Rick Lawler. In Silver, Bob Kalman won every Heat, 12 for 12. Bob also sailed well enough to beat some of the Gold Fleet as well.
We look forward to warmer weather this coming week!! The next event will be Tuesday, May 18 at 4 PM, then Saturday, May 22 at 9 AM, all at SIRE Institute, Rt. 534 just North of I-90, in Geneva.
