2007 Ultimate 20 East Coast Championship Lake Norman Yacht Club – Mooresville NC – November 10 & 11

Congratulations go to LNYC members Pete Marroitt and Bob McGrath for their victory on Zulu in the fifth running of this event. Twenty U20 crews gathered for the traditional Friday afternoon tasting of the Goombay Smash followed by a couple days of racing. Four races were run on Saturday in shifting winds ranging from 5 to 15 knots which made for some extremely challenging conditions and very interesting score lines. Sunday’s forecast was for light and variable conditions and they nailed it. The one and only race allowed four boats of the twenty to finish within the time limit. Fortunately, regatta leaders were again sailing well despite the conditions.
