(Rye, New York)- Counting their blessings that the weather forecast
would hold and produce suitable winds, the seventy-eight boats
participating in the American YC Spring Series were not disappointed.
After two days and six races, the various fleets couldn’t have been more
pleased with the performance of AYC’s excellent RC work.
The largest fleet is also the youngest and also marks its debut in the
AYC Spring Series! With fifteen boats registered, the J/70s saw
spirited competition across the board. Currently leading is class
newcomer David Murphy sailing COOKIE MONSTER to an amazing five 1sts in a
row! Just behind them is John Brim’s RIMETTE only five pts back.
Lying third is Scott Furnary on NONAME YET. Dave Florence in BUZZZ is
4th and Carrie & Ed Austin sailing CHINOOK are sitting in 5th.
Next weekend may see an entire flip-flop in these standings, especially
in the one-design classes. A change in the weather, a new moon
blooming, Mars ascending over Venus, just about anything can influence
the karma of the leading teams. Check the standings after next weekend
here, could be an eye-opener! For more American YC Spring Series sailing information
