Summary:
We had a great day for sailing with 10-15 knots of Northeast breeze, and got a complete rotation in by 3:00.  We sailed 8 races is each division, with each team getting one bye.  The racing was extremely close as the lead see-sawed throughout the day with the top 4 changing places every set.  Nantucket, led by A-division skipper Jen Philbrick, pulled off the victory in the end.  Special thank yous for the food go to Jackie Leach, Greg Kelly, Ethan Owens and the Harwich Moms.  Also, Cape Water Sports (and general manager Ethan Owens) provided a big assist in preparing and repairing the boats for the day, and providing, with Vanguard, a lot of great giveaways at the end-of-regatta free raffle.  Great sportsmanship and competition was displayed by all teams!  See you next year!
