With 13 MC races (and 4 C Races on Sat. afternoon) spanning from 8 to 18 minutes, our fleet saw a BUNCH of starts and mark roundings.   Recap to come, but Sam Chapin, our LESC Laser guru and all-around cheerleader got a brief published in the Orlando Sentinel /Lake Edition!  Click here to access or READ MORE to get results!

With the end of another great sailing season come the promise of a new one!  The calendar for the 2008-2009 sailing year is posted along with the Series dates (in the different colors) for the club races.  Mark your calendar today!

Lots to talk about the past month of sailing and also to reflect back on the year.  The top posters follow below, and it is important to note that EVERYONE in the Fleet got tougher this year as we trophied in every regatta and almost everyone's scores in the big regattas got better!  Check out the 2007-2008 page for details and to see where you stack up!

Senior MC sailor Dennis Oldham (881) proved he's no slouch after 12+ years in the MC taking second place in a winning tie-break with Lee Sayler (2201) in the 2-9 mph airs over this past weekend! Huge holes were everywhere and Dennis seemed to hop from one puff to the next without issue and had 2 huge come-from-behinds to finish in the top few.

David Moring (2188) found the winds more to his strength and put off determined efforts by Jon Pomerleau (2367) and Lee in race #1, Geoff Moehl (2412) and Bob Cole (2350) in race #2, Jon again in race #3, and finally Lee and Dennis together again in race #4 to win 4 straight bullets. Dennis and Cliff Trent (830) proved the old boats are still competitive with the right skipper - Cliff has a 6th in the 3rd race. The first mark of each race was pretty contentious for the whole fleet with the leader and the last boat only a minute apart, though the holes and shifts soon took over and spread the fleet out over 1-1/2 legs.

Last weekend before Memorial Day is in 2 weeks so make sure to come out. Dave Leather (2316) has a cookout planned for Saturday afternoon, so bring a side-dish and be sure to stay over for food and friends!

This weekend was about as perfect as you can get!  With winds 8-15, everyone kept moving and mark roundings were generally tight.  Scott Tillema (2107) shook it up this weekend scoring an almost-perfect weekend to win 1-1-5-1, while Jon Pomerleau (2367) worked the inside looking for any weakness and finished a strong second.  Just behind him, Dave Moorhouse (2074) also had very consistent finishes in the breeze to finish 3rd.  Other strong performances were Len Lesperance with a 5-4, Mike Baldacchino with his first top 5 finish!

For the 4th Series, Scott leads the David Moring (2188) by 2 points who is, in turn, only ahead of Jon by 1 point.  In the Overall, David is leading Jon by a mere 15 points while Dave Moorhouse in 3rd is leading Scott by a mere 6 points.  That is some seriously close racing after 8 months - so come on out and get in the action!  Results are in the "Read More" below - recap to follow soon hopefully!
