"7th Race
The Race Committee has held the competitors on the water for a 4th race. The wind continues to be steady at 15 knots with an occasional lull to 13 knots. The south south easterly breeze direction continued, however the velocity slowly dropped during the race from 15 knots down to 8-10 by the finish. That didn't seem to bother Derby Anderson and Lucy Kupersmith (Annapolis, MD) who sailed away with their 3rd straight bullet in a row leaving them comfortably in the lead with one race to go. The win in race 7 did not come without a fight. Kitty Lovelace and Hillary Webb (Greenwich, CT) battled to the end, swapping the lead with Anderson and Kupersmith a few times before crossing the line second."
