Today we completed the Philadelphia Laser Championships. Wind was light, first from the North wind tunnel, and then during one of the races it flipped 180 to Southerly from the Dam.
As always under these conditions, pressure moves thru the course, this time West shore side was most consistent.
We had a tie for the first. Jim Irvin won the tie breaker with 2 bullets. Our Commodore Pete Madonna took 2nd, Jim Knob 3rd and John Surguy visiting from Long Island Sound took 4th. Complete results are here.
We had guests from NJ, DE, NY and few places in PA. Thank you all for coming.
Thanks to the sunfish fleet who run RC in challenging conditions and completed 6 races allowing for one throw out.
Also thanks to all our volunteers who always made it successful event.
