2015 hoppe regatta june 27

[Bill]

It was a near perfect day for the Hoppe Regatta. Winds were in the 17 to 20+ range. Tides were light. There was, however, a bit of confusion at the start with NEMESIS restarting after thinking they were over early. They left about two minutes behind their competition, DUST.

With near ideal weather and tidal conditions, it was only about an hour later, when the competitors were back at the start/finish. Close to record time for the event. Recovering from their late start, NEMESIS crossed the finish line about two minutes ahead of DUST!

First photo is DUST; second is booth boats (DUST closest to camera); third is the winning boat, NEMESIS.
