Midwinters Recap:

The 2001 Disabled Midwinters was an interesting event for both the sailors and the other officials. As you may know, this was the first opportunity to be classified under the new system - and an opportunity for the classifiers to see a large group of sailors for comparison purposes. The system is the result of 4 years of hard work - and the results show. A combined 'anatomical test' and 'functional dock/sailing test' resulted in numbers that truly begin to reflect sailors abilities and functionality on the water.

The racing was tight in both classes - with the entire 2.4 mR fleet routinely rounding weather marks within 2 minutes of each other, and leads switching back and forth numerous times in both fleets. Sailors in the Sonar fleet received a lesson in counting and reading Sailing Instructions... and will hopefully take these to the Worlds.

We were pleased to include the Canadians and British amongst the sailors - one Sonar and two 2.4 mRs. Andrew and Brian decided to try their hand at 2.4 mR sailing instead of the normal Sonar under Andy Cassell (GBR Gold '96). They both rapidly got the feel of the boats, and are now working on their consistency. The Canadian Sonar team drove Ross-Duggan and Trude hard around the course, and ended with a first place - and made David Trude an honorary Canadian for his sporting actions on the race course... namely, finding some way to give up his lead every time he had one.

We also added a couple of new disabled sailors to the growing numbers in the US. Hearing of the regatta on a local radio station, Tommy and Jen came to the Sailing Center to check things out - and ended up getting involved. Both have sailed in pre-injury, and are looking forward to getting on the water.

Overall, this was great preparation for the Worlds, which will be in St. Petersburg October 24-31, 2001. The Notice of Race for the Worlds can be found at www.ussailing.org, www.spyc.org, and www.sailingalternatives.org. This will be the first Worlds without limitations on numbers of boats per country, so we are looking forward to the largest fleet ever.

We started racing shortly after 0900 today. The wind was moderate around 7 knots. There were three races held and they all were two windward legs.

The final results for the Sonars were Ken Kelly (Can), David Trude (USA), and John Dugan (USA

The final results for the 2.4's were Tom Brown (USA), Rick Doerr (USA) and Roger Cleworth (USA). The actual race results will be posted soon.

Saturday was a beautiful day on shore Low 90's low winds, no races. Sunday, We are scheduled to catch the early morning winds with the first race at 0900.

Results so far for the 2.4 are: Rick Doerr, Tom Brown, Roger Cleworth

Ken Kelly and John Ross are tied in the Sonar with Dave Trude close behind.

Today Friday was the first day of racing. The race course was finally adjusted for shifty winds and the first race began around 10:30 am. The breeze was between 8-12 knots for the first race, but settled down to 4 or less by the end of the third. Temperatures were in the mid to upper 80's, making for a great day to be out on the water. The race results are not available yet but should be by this evening. Serge Jorgensen will be adding comments later.

We started racing shortly after 0900 today. The wind was moderate around 7 knots. There were three races held and they all were two windward legs.

The final results for the Sonars were Ken Kelly (Can), David Trude (USA), and John Dugan (USA

The final results for the 2.4's were Tom Brown (USA), Rick Doerr (USA) and Roger Cleworth (USA). The actual race results will be posted soon.

Today Friday was the first day of racing. The race course was finally adjusted for shifty winds and the first race began around 10:30 am. The breeze was between 8-12 knots for the first race, but settled down to 4 or less by the end of the third. Temperatures were in the mid to upper 80's, making for a great day to be out on the water. The race results are not available yet but should be by this evening. Serge Jorgensen will be adding comments later.

Midwinters Recap:

The 2001 Disabled Midwinters was an interesting event for both the sailors and the other officials. As you may know, this was the first opportunity to be classified under the new system - and an opportunity for the classifiers to see a large group of sailors for comparison purposes. The system is the result of 4 years of hard work - and the results show. A combined 'anatomical test' and 'functional dock/sailing test' resulted in numbers that truly begin to reflect sailors abilities and functionality on the water.

The racing was tight in both classes - with the entire 2.4 mR fleet routinely rounding weather marks within 2 minutes of each other, and leads switching back and forth numerous times in both fleets. Sailors in the Sonar fleet received a lesson in counting and reading Sailing Instructions... and will hopefully take these to the Worlds.

We were pleased to include the Canadians and British amongst the sailors - one Sonar and two 2.4 mRs. Andrew and Brian decided to try their hand at 2.4 mR sailing instead of the normal Sonar under Andy Cassell (GBR Gold '96). They both rapidly got the feel of the boats, and are now working on their consistency. The Canadian Sonar team drove Ross-Duggan and Trude hard around the course, and ended with a first place - and made David Trude an honorary Canadian for his sporting actions on the race course... namely, finding some way to give up his lead every time he had one.

We also added a couple of new disabled sailors to the growing numbers in the US. Hearing of the regatta on a local radio station, Tommy and Jen came to the Sailing Center to check things out - and ended up getting involved. Both have sailed in pre-injury, and are looking forward to getting on the water.

Overall, this was great preparation for the Worlds, which will be in St. Petersburg October 24-31, 2001. The Notice of Race for the Worlds can be found at www.ussailing.org, www.spyc.org, and www.sailingalternatives.org. This will be the first Worlds without limitations on numbers of boats per country, so we are looking forward to the largest fleet ever.
