TBCSI Harken Series Regatta 2008 – Story and Results

 

Because of fleet sizes we actually ran three starts (A-Cat, High & Low Portsmouth) and scored by these groups. However, we actually awarded trophies in the following classes:

A-Cat

H-16

F-18

High Portsmouth (H-16 single handed, H-17, H-14T)

Low Portsmouth (I-20, H-20)

 

2008 TBCSI Harken Series Regatta Results

 

Eighteen boats came to beautiful Dunedin Causeway for the 1st Annual TBCSI Harken Series Regatta. Classes consisted of C-Cats (6 boats), High Portsmouth (H-16, H-17, H-14T – 8 boats) and Low Portsmouth (F-18, I-20, H-20 – 5 boats). Saturday started with a SSW breeze around 8 knots which fluctuated higher and lower throughout the day and clocked more westward as the day progressed. Race Committee ran 4 races from the top deck of the beautiful 40’ trawler “Regards” (Thanks Rod!) in fairly bumpy seas. Those sailors with experience sailing downwind in waves seemed to excel based on the conditions. The A-Cat and Low Portsmouth classes ran a variety of windward/leeward courses while the High Portsmouth got a “B” mark to reach to. As always the last race of the day provided the best screaming reach opportunities!

 

Saturday night’s party at the Dunedin Boat Club was a great opportunity for some bench racing and tactical discussion while enjoying a cold keg of Yuengling lager. Many participants headed into historic downtown Dunedin for dinner and more partying.

 

Sunday brought a stiff 18-20 knot breeze from the South. With a front called for within the next few hours bringing significantly higher winds the decision was made to cancel racing for the day. Thanks to all participants who understood the safety reasoning behind this decision. Trophies were awarded on the beach and competitors enjoyed burgers and beer while tearing down their boats.

 

A big “thanks” to all participants, especially those who made the trip from out of town. We hope to see more of you at next year’s event!
