CYC Opti Team Gets Top Results at Consecutive Regattas!

Halloween Spectacular Regatta at Lake Forest


October 29-30th was the Halloween Spectacular regatta hosted by Lake Forest. CYC had the largest Opti participation with 7 of our newest Lime sailors sailing in Green fleet and 8 of our Championship sailors competing in Red White and Blue Fleet.

Amy Kehoe coached the Green team and it was many of the sailors first regatta. The kids had a blast (all left with smiles) and did a great job!

Katia DaSilva and Julia Melton coached the Championship fleet. Peter Barnard was the 1st overall, Christian Prendergast was 5th overall, and Dina Fedulova placed 3rd in white fleet. All of our sailors improved throughout the weekend. Way to go sailors!

Shepherd's Regatta at Columbia Yacht Club


On November 5-6 the Opti team traveled to Monroe Harbor for the Shepherds regatta hosted by Columbia YC.

The conditions on Saturday were light, shifty and variable winds from the west. Sunday conditions were light and shifty, but slightly more consistent breeze coming from the east.

The Race Committee raced both fleets on the same course, which made it challenging to stay in clear air and avoid other boats around the course. The kids did an outstanding job-check out the results below!
