2007 OLC Regatta

This final event capped a great four days of racing with a challeng-ing race and a splendid post-race party. We had a total of 9 boats in the spinnaker class and five boats in cruising canvas. The very light wind shifted just prior to the scheduled start of the race. Once again, Ed Godfrey and his team of Mark Fortin, Hugh Hunsinger, Greg Truss and Denise Duffee detected the shift and made a last minute adjustment to the starting line. Once again, our notorious currents and light winds challenged much of the fleet.

Spinnaker Class

• 2nd Navicular (Wisch, Essex Corinthian YC)

After Race Party and Awards

A great party by the crew of Sue Wisner, Chris Guile, Mary and-Steve Pope, Mary Lee Hunsinger, Ellen Cika, and Janet Vinciguerra. Donated food by the kitchen crew helped defrayed expenses and brought great dishes. Working the ticket and T-shirt sales were Jennifer and Chris Fortin. Ruth Hockert arranged for the bright 2007 T-shirts and an excellent selection of chandlery items. Steve Pope worked to develop sponsors as part of the NCYC’s effort to further enhance the event. Steve efforts resulted in Guilford Savings Bank sponsoring two new perpetual racing trophies. A final note of thanks to Mark Fortin and Ed Godfrey for their outstanding club racing program.

Inner Light Classic

The “Big Money” serious racing takes place in front of the NCYC club house with the club’s Dwyers manned by crew members of the racing fleet. Janet Vinciguerra officiated. Jane Reilly organized the race and collected the donations, a portion of which go to the club’s junior sailing program. The big winner was Mike, son of a crew member from Snowbird- Way to go, Mike!
