On Friday, June 9th after waiting out thunderstorms, four boats from Sail Georgina set out for Lagoon City Yacht Club (LCYC) for the first two races of the Lake Simcoe Interclub Series (LSIS). Only three made it. Ken Hendry of Blue Sky must have a tale to tell since his boat returned to the harbour with a broken mast!
Saturday's race was the traditional around Thorah Island course. Fears of another bug ridden drifter were soon set aside as the race began with about 8 knots of wind. Jeff Reid, took the 1st place flag in the White Sail Low division. Tim Glover, Carl White and Dave Robinson all competed in the White Sail High Division with Tim taking 1st, Carl 3rd and Dave 5th. Sunday's course was the LCYC triangle. Despite predictions of light winds there was a nice 5 knot breeze blowing. SGA had another very good showing with Jeff Reid again winning his race, Carl White placing 2nd, Tim Glover placing 3rd and Dave Robinson 5th. With 6 flags, SGA is the club to beat! It's not too late to join the fun. With 8 races remaining it's not hard to complete the 6 needed to score. To see the entire results go to www.byc.on.ca/results/2007/lsis/lsis.html
