Laser District 8 News

Revised November 10, 2007

From the "better late than never department" - a news flash from Fred Ables about the Radial US Nationals....He finished 6th and Christian Cremer sailed really well finishing 12th. (August 19 -it went to my old e-mail)

"Showdown in Shinnecock Bay" video now on YouTube. Check out District 8's videos at https://www.youtube.com/laserd8

East End Series #5 - Southampton Yacht Club

Here are the results from racing Saturday, August 25th at Southampton YC, the 5th of 5 regattas in the 2007 East End Laser Series.

Seven foolhardy sailors raced 5 races in 8 to 10 knots of breeze from the SW with thankfully little chop in complete white-out conditions. The general direction to the marks was known. The marks themselves were a constant surprise as they emerged from the fog.

East End Series #4 - Breakwater Yacht Club - For pictures of the event, click here

Saturday is the fifth of five regattas in the 2007 East End Laser Series! We have already been to Old Cove YC, Shelter Island YC, Devon YC and Breakwater YC. The last and final stop is this coming Saturday at the newly renovated Southampton YC. The 2007 East End Laser Series is one of the largest Laser events of the summer. 39 racers have participated so far!

 

Here are the results from Saturday at Breakwater YC. 16 hearty competitors went out to the racecourse in 15 to 20 knots of breeze from the north. The RC and club did a terrific job getting in 6 races.

Here are the (updated) results from racing yesterday at Devon YC. A fleet of 23 waited for wind and was rewarded with 5 races in 5 knots of wind from the SW. Congratulations to Andre, Rudy, Connie, Eli, Bud, Michael, Doug and Lynn for winning in their divisions. Many thanks to DYC and their organization for hosting us.

New York Laser Sailors,

We are off and sailing in the 2007 East End Laser Series – five Saturdays, five clubs on the NY Long Island’s East End.

The first day of racing was this past Saturday at Old Cove YC in New Suffolk. It was good to race again on the North Fork. We enjoyed seven races in a steady 10 knot breeze from the southwest on flat water and a square course. Priceless

As you can see, the Series welcomes all Laser sailors to come out for some good clean racing.

District 8 Laser Sailors,

Join us for the 2007 East End Laser Series – five Saturday afternoons at five different venues on New York Long Island’s East End! 

Daily and series places awarded to full, radial and 4.7 rigs; to junior, open and masters age groups; to boy, girl, adult male and adult female top finishers. Special recognition will be awarded to those who travel the furthest, those who recruited the most fellow sailors, and those with the most spectacular downwind wipe-outs. Race at least 3 days and qualify for series standing!

See you on the water.

Race Report - From Ted Cremer - Bay Shore Yacht Club graciously hosted the Great South Bay Race week during the last weekend in July. The three day regatta was blessed with a variety of sailing conditions with Friday and Saturday getting the good southwest breezes and Sunday being a lot lighter. In all 10 lasers and one radial competed in a 14 race series. What made the regatta particularly unique was that at least 50% of the fleet consisted of sailing instructors from various clubs from the GSBYRA. They all agreed to race one another in borrowed boats and had an awesome time!   District 8 sailors Ted Cremer, Dan Desmond and Ward Brooks took the fist three places in the Full Rigs and the top radial sailor was Sayville Yacht Club's own Spencer Olsson. The full results are posted below.

Race Results- July 1, Babylon Yacht Club. This year's 4th of July regatta presented  a variety of conditions ranging from a shifty southerly which developed into a good sea breeze in the afternoon to a gusty northerly on Sunday.   Ted Cremer and Bob Blanco traded off and found themselves tied after day one with Ted ahead on the tiebreak. Bob sailed a brilliant race two nailing two big shifts to put himself well in the lead at the top mark. Dan Desmond continued to improve over the weekend sailing faster and faster upwind.   Spencer Olsson, a Sayville YC junior sailor sailed well in a radial consistently trading places with the full rig sailors.    Special thanks to Joe Mule and Pete Capitain from Babylon YC for running a great regatta and for getting 10 races off for the sailors.

Race Results- June 16, Cold Spring Harbor Beach Club. Eleven sailors found themselves testing the light air, which varied from puffs strong enough to put them into the hiking straps to dead calms. Shifty conditions put a premium on picking the correct sides of the course and staying in phase. Roll tacks and roll jibes important? You bet! Back to the same location next week!

Race Results- June 9, Dinghy Shop Regatta in Amityville. Lindsay reports very tricky conditions with winds swinging between northeast and north, varying 8-15 knots with strong current. A good turnout of Junior sailors, which is always nice to see. Seven races were run, allowing one throwout.

Jim Kohler of the Dinghy Shop very generously donated prizes for the event, which ranged from a PFD to rash guards. Thanks Jim!

Race Results- May 26, Seawanhaka Corinthian YC -

Seawanhaka Spring Fling Laser Regatta

By Eric Johnson

Memorial Day weekend got started with annual Laser District 8 Regatta. The forecast was not great with a predicted light northerly. 10 boats came to see how it would work out and it worked out fine. Principal Race Officer Paul Nardone found a spot just south of the club where the wind was funneling in and set up his course. The first race became a reaching event when the wind back to the Northwest, but the Race Committee got the shifts down and the rest of the races ran truer. There was a lot of tide running through and that rewarded the sailors who paid attention to it.  The overall winner was Commodore Al Constants followed by Lindsay Hewitt and the top Junior, Jake Evans  The top Radial was Bobby Boger.
