Go for the Gold After anxiety about water levels and a long wait for wind, Gold Country YC offered up a fine regatta to 60 assorted keelboats and centerboarders, including 28 Lasers, on the first weekend of June. As in the Ditch Run down at sea level, June 4's breeze on the Sierra Foothills lake of Scotts Flat was inadequate. "Saturday began with an overcast and dead calm, and all boats had to paddle or motor out to the far end of the course," says GCYC's Dave Cowell. The wind finally came up enough for two low-speed races. Cowell reports a complete reversal of weather on Sunday. "The sultry air and cloud cover were replaced by sunshine and wind. The wind showed up much sooner and with more authority." At times it began to look blustery, causing "some concern in the class boats carrying larger genoas and pandemonium on the prow for changing sails and bemoaning three-minute start sequences." A Thistle flipped, the pintle and rudder coming off. "They managed to right themselves and be on their way." — latitude/chris NON-SPINNAKER — 1) Meliki, Santana 22, Deb Fehr, 5 points; 2) Obsession, Harbor 20, Dave Vickland, 11; 3) Fun, Santana 22, Chris Nicholas, 13.

Marinite Wins Rose Cup The winner of the Rose Cup was determined in the last race of the U.S. Youth Match Racing Championship Finals on June 19. With the series even at 2-2, #2 seed Romain Screve of Ross, SFYC and StFYC, with crew Sammy Shea and Jackson Ritter of San Francisco, edged past #1 seed Sean Cornell of Centerport, NY, to win the championship. Hosted by Sail Sheboygan and Sheboygan YC in Wisconsin, the 10 teams of 16- to 20-year-olds, racing in Elliott 6m keelboats, enjoyed outstanding conditions on Lake Michigan. The win earned Screve an invitation to the Governor's Cup on July 18-23 at Balboa YC in Corona del Mar. He also qualifies for the Oakcliff Halloween Invitational on October 29-30 in Match 40s. — latitude/chris ISLANDER 36 — 1) Cassiopeia, Kit Wiegman, 7 points; 2) Renaissaance of Tahoe Vista, Steven Hixson, 12; 3) Zenith, Bill Nork, 14.
