On Saturday April 23rd we traveled up to Mathews for their "middle season" regatta. Due to illness and prom activities our team was short twelve members and we had to juggle seat assignments and actually scratch one entry, but we did have eleven crews race down the course. We had a much needed break in the weather compared with the early season regattas. Four of our novices finally got a chance to actually participate in a race! The day started with showers at 5:00 a.m. in the school parking lot, but by the time we arrived in Mathews at 7:00 the skies had cleared and we were gifted with calm conditions for the first few races. There was a light breeze slowly building through the morning and by the time we were finished with our last race and loaded up for the trip home, the weather deteriorated with rain showers washing the boats off for us!
Our best finish was one of our WN4 crews which finished 2nd of 6.
I'll post results when I get them. The video will be edited and added over the next few days. If you have any additional pix, send them my way and I'll add them. Meanwhile, we did get a picture of most of the crew team that attended prom that night.
