Hi Everyone!!
So, this will be a fairly longish and wonky type of R/C email, but hopefully it will help y'all understand what happened this weekend.
Both Saturday and Sunday, we raced very well. At the awards party on Sunday, they still did not have the final results to look at, inspect, etc, etc, so when they were published, imagine my surprise when we were scored DNC for race #1. DNC basically means "Did Not Come to start the race."We were certainly there, but then they did not score our finish, either, as far as I could tell.
Thankfully, the #1 R/C team is on the job.
The following lists are The 'original' finish lists that they used to give away the swag at the end of the race, and what I have recalculated based on the finish time we took for race #1. These are taken right off of the COLORS website; I just added in the proper times at the bottom, and the revised results after that.

yes, we finished 10 seconds ahead of the 70 footer (Nitemare!) on handicap. WE ROCK.
So, re-juggling the scores results in a Regatta overall finish like this:
-- Maskwa wins the tie breaker for 3rd because of the 1st in race #1!
So we should have been on the podium.
Even if they rescore the race (and I think they are going to, according to Don,) I highly doubt Defiance will be persuaded to give up their 3rd Place flag. Still, it could happen. Here is the important thing--
We raced against some of the fastest, and most well sailed boats in Lake Michigan. We went toe to toe, and nose to nose with them, and we did very well! The race was not a pure windward-leeward, because the course was not completely square; that favors waterline, so if the course was properly square to the wind, we would have done even better, the way we raced. We went up against some of the best, and while it was not a total smackdown, we made a very good showing for ourselves.
We are certainly ready for the NOODs.
Everybody rest up, it's gonna be a great summer!!
Cheers!
Scott
