Two New NCYC Champions! Plus upcoming weekend races

I am pleased to be able to report two new championships earned by members representing North Cape Yacht Club:

1. Gary Hall's and Bruce Geffen's catamaran Nice Pair has repeated its 2008 Great Lakes Multihull Boat of the Year championship once again in 2009. The Pair has built on its 1st in the Chicago Mackinac Race, and 2nd in the Chicago to Port Huron Super Mackniac, and 1st in the Port Huron Mackinac Race by now taking the overall championship for the lakes. Congratulations Gary, Bruce and everyone else involved in this effort!

2. Anna Tunnicliffe has (temporarily at least) changed disciplines and taken on Match Racing. After a nonstop year of Laser Radial sailing she has given crewed boats a try. In just her second match racing event ever, this past weekend against a fleet of eleven other boats crewed by members of the male persuasion, Anna and her crew of three other women have won the 2009 Detroit Cup at Bayview Yacht Club in Ultimate 20s. Congratulations Anna and crew!
