LARC Winter #4 by LLSC - Feb 27, 2021

3/1/2021

 
This race was a challenge for RC, the predictions all week had been a cessation of the rain and an increase of the wind.  They were correct about the rain and the wonderful air temperature but the wind never achieved expectations.  David and Carol Reddaway and their race committee volunteers, spent some time making sure we had a square course.  The wind shifted several times and RC started with a temporary windward mark until the wind finally settled to A mark.  
 
We had an interesting start, the Melges 24 fleet started first and the rest of the fleets started second.  The last 2 LARC races were pursuit starts, so this was good practice for those hectic starts on Wednesday nights with boats of many sizes.  I thought it was a lot of fun, especially since I was in front of the 30 foot monsters.  I didn’t stay that way but it was fun while it lasted.
 
We had quite a contest in the Melges 24 fleet between Hermes and Premature Acceleration with Tony Stanley beating Davis Macleod by 4 seconds.  In the Low PHRF, newcomer Hot Toddy (J-90), finished 7 minutes in front of his competition, while in the High PHRF we were very happy to see Hunter Sohn out on his Wavelength 24.  In the Cruiser fleet, we have an old racer and a new boat, Impetuous, sailed by an old salty dog (Greg Cash) and his crew of reprobates (looked like Ben Harbin and Tim Wilson), sailing to first place 15 minutes in front of their competition (someone might need to do an inspection of his boat) in this race.
            
I usually wait until trophy presentations to declare the winners.  But we must adapt.  The winners of the 2021 Winter LARC series are (complete results are available with attached document):
