Spring Fling II regatta report

Our fourth regatta was held on the Chickahominy River just west of Williamsburg. This was the first time the EVSRA used this venue, the home waters of the Williamsburg Boat Club.

In fact, the current, both incoming in the morning, and outgoing in the afternoon, made the finish times completely useless for comparison to our previous regattas. The relative placing in each race is more reliable for comparison, but with floating starts even the alignment and distance traveled within a single event had discrepancies. At any rate, here are the results:
