2010 John Ford Regatta
August 19, 2010
The regatta featured sailing in our Frosty class boats for novice (green fleet) sailors are ages eight to thirteen.
The breeze was minor -- only 2-6 knots as racing began on Thursday evening around 6:00pm. Family and spectators gathered on SailMaine property while a Race Committee made up of SailMaine’s summer instructors blew whistles for three separate starts.
Racing was a bit slow at first but fun was had by all as each boat crossed the finish line of the last race and de-rigged to the smell of a cook out at the top of the ramp. Many thanks as well to our team of instructors!
Race Committee: Robb Kirchner, Henry Cole, Shawn Cole
Mark Boat: Lauren Grooters, Alex Dion
Grill Master: Rob Rice and Cole Schreiber
Friends and supporters of the racers barbecued until the sun set on SailMaine grounds. Thanks to everyone for coming out and supporting our youngest sailors as they jump start their racing careers! Congratulations!
