Massapoag 76th Regatta big boats Day 1 - After breakfast, the morning brought spotty wind so PRO Roger Sharp kept us on shore rather than floating on the water. Mark Riefenhauser was out sailing and helping the RC judge the situation and that was appreciated! We stayed on shore through lunch. We finally got wind later in the dsy and the RC managed 2 great races, one with a 45° wind shift that they quickly adjusted for. Following that was Donna Rousseau and team treating us to an incredible array of appetizers and cocktails. And then, we had our steak, chicken, lobster and pasta dinner and make your own sundaes desserts. 

Day 2 - 4 more races today! Thanks to all who came and all who helped. All in all, a really fun event!

Massapoag teams went to Saratoga this weekend for their Flying Scot regatta. We had 2 long light air races on Saturday and 2 on Sunday. The Eckarts came in 1st and the Kampfs came in 2nd. Always a fun time at Saratoga.
