Gable as Linton and Edwards both posted double digit finishes the third race. Joanne Weberlein Wins in Austin! On Thursday, the breeze filled more slowly. Nancy Haberland took advantage of the light air fourth race to post the first of her three bullets. Linton liked the conditions as well. He finished third behind Nancy and then won the fifth race. A double-digit finish by Smith in the fourth race left him one point ahead of Linton after the fifth. By five o'clock Thursday the sea breeze was well organized for the start of the sixth race. Todd Edwards posted his second bullet followed by Smith and Gable. The discard became applicable after the sixth race. Smith's lead increased to five points after Thursday by virtue of a bigger discard and Linton's sixth race finish, three places behind Smith. Everyone expected the northerly to die Friday. The trusty Mobile Bay sea breeze had been filling like clockwork all week long. It was not to be. A three to six knot northerly oscillated down Mobile Bay throughout both of the last two races. Women's Champions from left, Mindy Strauley, 6th; Gail Heausler, 5th; Jean Bergman, 4th; The conditions were no problem for Lee Parks, 2nd; Kathie Remmer, 2nd and Joanne Weberlein, 1st.

Windward Leg - Summer 2000 NA's continued from page 1 Linton explained his rationale for what subsequently took place. "I figured The 2000 NA's that my chances were twice as good to win if I tried to keep Malcolm in the back of the Left, Mike Gable (3rd) pack. I would win if we both finished deep. I and Ray Long discuss could also win if we both climbed back up to the race the front as long as I finished ahead of him. I and below wasn't that worried about Gable. Mike was Katy Lovell shines up her board. fast in the breeze but the girls were flying in Sam Waller, that light air. Nancy came from 100 yards below left, at the FYC behind me to win the first race that day. In that last race, my problem was Malcolm, not Mike." At the start of the final race, Linton photos CC lee-bowed Smith before the start. He took him head to wind and trapped him. As the rest of fleet sailed off toward the first mark, the two contenders were dead in the water. Neither one could catch enough boats to place above twelfth. Jeff was in first place for the first time in the regatta. Malcolm moved to second and Mike Gable clinched third. Charlie Clifton AICOPt TROPHY (Formerly The Founders' cup) It was just a matter of time before it finally happened. After 24 years of clandestinely being referred to as the Flounder's Cup, the trophies appeared bearing the name of the esteemed flatfish. In order to properly honor the patriarchs of the Sunfish, Al Bryan and Cort Heyniger, the class voted to change the name to the Below, from left, AlCort Trophy winners, Bill Betts, 6th; Tom Katterheinrich, 7th; Connie Miller, 2nd; AlCort Trophy. Bill "Mr. Mardi Gras" Haberland, 3rd; & Jonathan Bean. Missing: Larry Hill 4th .. If Jeff Linton had any trouble figuring the math to win the Championship Division, Jonathan Bean deserves a doctorate for calculating the last race finish necessary to win the AlCort Trophy. Chris Evans had been in the running but blasted himself out of contention by rocketing to his best finish of the regatta. Jonathan started the race two points ahead of Connie Miller. Connie and Jonathan finished in the midst of]onathan's sparring partners, the Hassinger brothers. Finishing behind Peyton but in front of Connie and Stanley while not passing any more boats (which would have put Chris Evans back in) ass ured Bean possession of the first AlCort Trophy. The Hassinger brothers, incidentally, tied in the Championship series.

  • 2019 One Design Classes and Sailor Survey
    2019 One Design Classes and Sailor Survey [email protected] One Design Classes and Sailor Survey One Design sailing is a critical and fundamental part of our sport. In late October 2019, US Sailing put together a survey for One Design class associations and sailors to see how we can better serve this important constituency. The survey was sent via email, as a link placed on our website and through other USSA Social media channels. The survey was sent to our US Sailing members, class associations and organizations, and made available to any constituent that noted One-Design sailing in their profile. Some interesting observations: • Answers are based on respondents’ perception of or actual experience with US Sailing. • 623 unique comments were received from survey respondents and grouped into “Response Types” for sorting purposes • When reviewing data, please note that “OTHER” Comments are as equally important as those called out in a specific area, like Insurance, Administration, etc. • The majority of respondents are currently or have been members of US Sailing for more than 5 years, and many sail in multiple One-Design classes • About 1/5 of the OD respondents serve(d) as an officer of their primary OD class; 80% were owner/drivers of their primary OD class; and more than 60% were members of their primary OD class association. • Respondents to the survey were most highly concentrated on the East and West coasts, followed by the Mid- West and Texas – though we did have representation from 42 states, plus Puerto Rico and Canada. • Most respondents were male.
