2018 Y-Knot Cup Regatta


19th Annual Y-Knot Cup Regatta

Saturday & Sunday, September 8-9, 2018
Saturday started off with strong breeze from the NE, giving the Gold Fleet plenty to work with. We saw steady winds in the mid-teens, with gusts up to 20. After lunch, things calmed down a bit for the Silver Fleet as winds dropped down to the 8-12 range. On Sunday morning the Silver Fleet saw a repeat of Saturday afternoon’s weather, although a few degrees colder. The Gold Fleet saw lighter breezes Sunday afternoon, giving sailors a chance to demonstrate their light air skills. A full weekend of great weather that allowed us to get seven races in for the Golds, and six for the Silvers.
