Atlantic Coast Laser Masters

From Ted Morgan, Laser District 11 Secretary Fishing Bay Yacht Club hosted the 2003 Master Atlantic Coast Champs this past weekend. 29 boats showed up for 6 races. The ever shifty winds were out of the N/NE at about 8mph the entire weekend. There was just enough wind to make you want to hike out...just not enough to allow you to hike out for more than a couple of seconds.

Martin Willard (Wrightsville Beach, NC) won two races and finished second overall to Bob Tan (Perryville, MD). Tan carded scores of 3,2,13,2,1,3 to take the overall title. Complete Atlantic Coast results are available on the District 11 website http://www.D11Laser.com

We had a fantastic wine tasting cocktail party Saturday evening, followed by an Italian dinner. Many thanks go out to Regatta Chair Brad Squires, David Hazlehurst, the Williamsburg Winery, and all the volunteers at Fishing Bay Yacht Club for pulling this special event together. We'll be back next year!Next stop is Newport, RI and the Masters North American Championship. 98 boats are pre-registered.
