Race Report Hot Ruddered Bum Regatta, Lake Lanier, GA, Feb. 12 By Ron Michellette
T
he University Yacht Club (UYC) held its annual late winter or early spring regatta, depending on one’s outlook, on Lake Lanier, Saturday, Feb. 12. Twenty-five boats took part in four different fleets from hi/lo spinnaker to hi/lo non-spinnaker. Tom Sawchuck in his C7C 99 Breakaway won first place in Fleet 1; Warren Doyle in his Tartan 28 Rocket won first place in Fleet 2; Chris Webster in his S2 6.8 Sundance won first place in Fleet 3 and Rick Smith in his Catalina 320 Layla won first place in Fleet 4. The day was simply made to order with 15- knot winds, 60º temps and sunshine. There were times when the lake had white caps, which kissed many a rail on a beam reach. Fleets 1 through 2 are the low, medium and high spinnaker fleets, and Fleet 4 was the non-spinnaker fleet. Edith Collins, race committee, ran the upwind and downwind courses beginning with marker #16. The lower PHRF boats went two times around the windward marker # 11 and the leeward marker “R.” The higher PHRF boats went two times around a temporary windward marker at #13 and the leeward marker “R.” The après race party and awards ceremony were held at the UYC pavilion.
