Admiral’s Cup 2011

Posted: September 07, 2011 Under: Racing By Anne racel No Comments

The 15th annual Admiral’s Cup was held on Saturday, August 6th, once again hosted by our good friends at Seaford Yacht Club. Conditions in Poquoson Bay were challenging, with 15-25kt winds around the 11.7 nm, two-lap triangle course. For the first time, we had a cruising-class fleet along with spin and non-spin. The spinnaker fleet was an all-YRYC event, with Steve Bowen’s Dream On holding off Jim Bordeaux’ Solstice and John Haracivet’s Midnight Rider.
