Wow, Team SDYC sailors of all ages turned in some smashing results on both coasts over the Midwinters weekend! Here's a quick review of the many impressive accomplishments:

Fantastic results!

The 2013 SCYA Harold Adams Team Race Classic saw eleven teams from regional high schools and yacht clubs arrive at SDYC for a day of tight competition in La Playa cove. Forecasts were ominous with an outlook for intermittent rain, and little to no breeze, but as is usually the case in La Playa, sailing was better than expected with a light but serviceable SW breeze. The deft Race Committee was able to craft 50 races, completing 10 of the 11 flights in the scheduled round robin before the sun retreated for the day. Point Loma High School went undefeated to capture their seventh consecutive Harold Adams title, followed by Coronado HS in 2nd with nine wins on the day, and Cathedral Catholic HS with six wins and prevailing in the tie-breaker for 3rd place.
