SDYC Sabot Elite Capture the Dick Sweet Team Race Championship!

Sailing with an unblemished scorecard throughout the championship round at Alamitos Bay Yacht Club, SDYC’s “Dick Sweet Six” put it all together to capture the SCYYRA Sabot Team Racing Championship for 2008!

Fresh off a year at team racing powerhouse Georgetown University, Coach Michael Campbell got the team down to business early this summer, readying them to win the prize that had eluded them a year earlier. JP Barnes, Zach Downing, Will La Dow, David Larson, Scott Sinks, and Patrick Snow responded with the effort that got the job done, prevailing over Newport Harbor Yacht Club 2-0 in the final round of the series! Thanks to all the parents involved, and hearty congratulations to sailors and coach alike for a job well done!

Regatta Website

In the 29er Boys’ class, Judge Ryan (San Diego, CA) and Hans Henken (Coronado, CA) put up a strong fight all week, ending up with bronze on the final day. Running in a close second place for most of the event, Ryan and Henken incurred a disqualification [Thursday], which kept them from attacking first place. Final Results

Double Championships for SDYC at the Youth Champs

TYLER SINKS: 1st PLACE 420 FLEET (read full article)
This year’s US Youth Championship was hosted by San Francisco Yacht Club. This was my sixth and final youth championship. The regatta was sailed on the infamous Berkley Circle in the middle of San Francisco Bay. The conditions were what everyone had expected, windy. The wind blew a steady 15-20k with occasional 25-knot puffs. The strong winds blew against the ebbing tide which made for some very wavy/choppy conditions. I teamed up with one of my life long teammates Briana Provancha who was on the sailing team with me at Point Loma High School and is currently on my sailing team at Boston College. Briana and I were ready for the big breeze and rough sea’s and had the practice days to get all of our mistakes out of the way before the regatta started.

JUDGE RYAN: 1st PLACE, 29er FLEET (read full article)
After a long drive from San Diego to San Francisco on June 23rd I arrived at the Treasure Island Sailing Center to begin practicing for the 2008 US Youth Sailing Championship hosted by San Francisco Yacht Club. My crew, Hans Henken, and I would be competing in the 29er fleet. We would have two solid days of practice at Treasure Island Sailing Center and then we would be sailing over to SFYC to begin the event. Our practice days the 24th and 25th greeted us with great traditional San Fran breeze, 18 to 22 knots with steep chop. We anticipated that this would be a windy event; the first Youth Champs with breeze in a while.

SHONE BOWMAN: 10th PLACE, C420 FLEET (read full article)
This past week, San Fransisco Yacht Club (SFYC) hosted the annual US Sailing Youth Championship Regatta in the Berkeley Circle, San Fransisco Bay. Hand picked youth sailors from all over the country flocked to San Fran so as to compete in their individual classes: C420, Laser, Laser Radial, and 29er. San Diego Yacht Club had a good showing of competitors in each division. In C420s, San Diego Yacht Club (SDYC) was represented by Tyler Sinks, Jake LaDow, Jake Reynolds and myself. In the Laser class, Austin Evans represented SDYC. Rex Cameron and Nick Kaschak sailed Laser Radials. The SDYC 29er sailors included Judge Ryan and CC Childers. I sailed in the 36 boat C420 fleet with my crew, Cooper Scott. With all of the best youth sailors of the US competing for the win in heavy San Fransisco breeze and chop, the 2008 Youths looked to be the most exciting yet.
