Western Reserve
Model Yacht Club 2nd Annual Open S1M Regatta
Nineteen Soling 1 Meter skippers
participated in the Second Annual Western Reserve Model Yacht Club Open Regatta,
June 12-13 in Painesville, OH. Racing was in hot, humid weather, with light and
lighter winds. The format for this year's regatta was HMS 2007 (promotion/
relegation) for 3 races followed by fleet racing through the balance of the
regatta. Gold/ Silver fleets raced at the same time after a staggered start.
This allowed the regatta to include a total of 38 Heats.
With the large
number of races, sailing skill still prevailed and the top sailors managed to
find air and even with almost non-existent winds, the Solings still performed
well.

Entries: 10- Gold Fleet; 9- Silver Fleet, 19

Soling 1M Hot Regatta 2010 Sand Point Model Sailing Club
Despite the approach of
Summer and a lot of skippers have departed for the North we had a decent turnout for our 3rd
annual Hot Dog Regatta. First race started close
to scheduled time of 10:30 am. with winds out of the East at aprox.
7mph. We had skippers form
Sebring, Orlando and The Villages. The Titusville club was represented by
four local skippers. Commodore Butch Bragg
acted as Race Director. Thanks to Nicole and and
Justice for acting as score keepers. After running the scores
through my spreadsheet I found not one mistake. Great Job and thanks
again!!! John Egizi finished first
after a tie breaker with Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter took second
place followed by Geroge Reed with a third. The races were fairly
close with no one really running away with the show. The bullets were spread
pretty evenly by the first four finishers. Dave Griesse who finished
fourth actually had the most 1st's in the event. Consistency paid off for
John Egizi and Jimmy Carter. Ken Marr showed up late
from a misunderstanding about race start time. Ken missed the first two
races and was given the average of his overall scores for the first two races.

Region 6 Victoria
Class Championship Regatta Seattle Model Yacht Club
Not too often do you get
to race a second day with the winds being as good as or better than the day
before. The Seattle weather held out
both days with a few showers Sunday morning and cloudy skies the remainder.
We
had 12 skippers on Saturday to race and only 11 skippers available on
Sunday. We were able to get 14 races
completed on the first day. On Sunday,
we finished up with 26 races. We
finished early on Sunday to allow the out of town guests to get a jump on the
traffic going home. We had 2 skippers
from Canada, 4 skippers from Oregon and the rest from Seattle. We had a few Seattle skippers that sacrificed
racing to help with regatta logistics and helped run a great event.
