Hobie 20 NAs - On-the-Water Reporting!

No. They are on the beach (looking for a protest form). They were DNC in Race 10 and will be in Race 11.

We will probably have one more race after this one if the wind holds.

The last race was a perfect ending to the event. The wind picked up to 12-15 kts and shifted slightly so we could finish the race right at the beach on a course 6.

To no one's surprise, Phil and Bev Collins won the last race, and the event.

The all the race committee boats were present at the finish with all flags flying and horns going off for each finisher.

The awards banquet was held at the Quarry Restaurant and regatta organizer Dave Rice had many kind words for all his volunteer help in pulling off the event. The competitors and volunteers gave him a standing ovation for all his hard work in producing one of the best H-20 events in memory.

Special notice was made of Melinda Bommersbach who, as Beach Captain on Thursday, made sure that everyone was accounted for when the thunderstorm blew us off the lake.

Looks like Phil was using EPO2 rudders?

The rudders look black in the photos.

Jimmie Smith was using EPO2's as well.

May have been one other pair of white ones...or maybe that was on one of the two new Hobie 16's

Also note in some of the harshest conditions I've ever raced under, not one broken rudder blade, only a broken casting...on Jimmie Smiths' boat

I talked to Jimmie about those rudders, and he loves them. I am pretty sure his were white too. He said LOVE a couple of times.
