I have just completed the 2021 New England C420 Championships at the Wadawanuck Club in Stonington, CT. With a lack of wind, this proved a very challenging event.
Pushing through tough crowded starts, lack of wind and 180 degree wind shifts made improving your position off the start line difficult. After day one Sophia Mulvania and I were placed in 6th, three points out of third. Unfortunately, day two proved lighter and even shiftier conditions. Our positioning on the wrong side of the course led to disappointing finishes placing us just out of the top ten at the conclusion of day two.
We learned a lot and appreciated the opportunity to continue to work on our starts on a challenging line. Thank you for supporting our attendance at this event.
