New Beford Results

Over the weekend the 420 Race A team traveled to New Bedford for their first SMSA regatta. Coach Mildred reported that they had some great finishes and remained consistent for most of the weekend. The fleet had 77 boats and was great experience for big fleet racing. They all need to work on downwind sailing but have a big practice planned before traveling to Edgartown Jr. Regatta on Wednesday. They sailed well and represented WDYC respectfully. They also enjoyed eating hot spaghetti o's off of Mildred's dad's boat after a long day of racing. The results are posted on:

420 Sailors on fast ferry from Oak Bluffs to Hyannis (7:10 to 8:05)
We need 2 parent volunteers to pick up in Hyannis on Saturday evening. I know it's the 50th so it's a busy night but we need to get our sailors home!

The boats are on a ferry for Sunday night at 9:45. We couldn't get anything earlier so Mildred and Meghan will stay over and assure they get back on Sunday night.

Please come see Meghan with any questions regarding travel logistics.
