Sonar Fleet 1
Noroton YC
Fleet Racing:
Our first fleet race for the 2010 season was this past Sunday. The conditions were challenging with a 10-14 kt breeze out of the east, some nice waves and best of all...fog! Thanks to PRO Jim Crane and the rest of the RC, we were able to get three races in. Lee Morrison with crew Glenn Morrison (pictured above), son Alex Morrison and Don Vasta were blazing fast, taking three bullets!
Here are your top three finishers for Sunday May 23:
1. Lee Morrison
2. Sparkman/Sheehan
3. Alex Meleney
Long Island Sound Championships:
Noroton YC is hosting the Sonar LIS Championships on June 19-20. You can enter now by going to the Sonar Class site at http://www.sonar.org/ and entering the Member's Only section. A $50 late fee will be assessed to those who register after June 5 so plan ahead and register today.
Changes to the SI's
As a reminder, we have instituted a revision to our SI's. To encourage boats to take penalties, we have revised rule 44.1 to allow a one-turn penalty for a boat that breaks a rule in Part 2 while racing.
New SI's will be posted on the Noroton website by the end of the week
