Davis Cup
Iowa
September 24-25
Saturday morning teams gathered at 8AM at the Iowa Sailing Club boat house on Lake McBride, 10 milesNorth of Iowa City. A thunder storm ensued. For three hours distant thunder rumblings prolonged any racing. Coincidentally, the wind throughout the morning blew at a measly 5 knots or less. Races started at 1PM when the storm lifted and the breeze picked up. By mid-afternoon the wind blew steadily between 10-15 knots. The wind was, however, quite shifty the course was frequently re-set. The boats sailed were Iowa's fleet of FJ's. Sixteen races took place; 10 Saturday, 6 Sunday. The course sailed was a windward-leward course. Once around when the wind was light and twice around Saturday afternoon when the breeze was good. Sunday morning brought light winds and longer races. As listed above. The Michigan State Green squad won both divisions and consequently won sweet beanie caps made by Iowa sailors. The protest committee consisted of Bill Boudelier, John Huntley. The race committee consisted of Lauren Trolley, Warren Darling, and Rich Adkins. The crash boat was driven by John McCormick and Dillan Laughlin. Thank you to all who volunteered their time. The regatta chair is Matt Legg. Congratulations to Michigan State's Rob Linded and Cass Hauserman, who won 8 for 8 races in the A-division, and Mills Forni and Audrey Burskey on winning the B division. Thank you to all the teams who sailed.
