Rochester Canoe Club

JY15 Regatta

 

Rochester Canoe Club’s 2009 JY15 Regatta took place on July 11th and 12th on Irondequoit Bay.  The weather, though not ideal, was sufficient enough for five races on Saturday morning before racing was cancelled because of a storm.  Four races were held on Sunday.  All races were held in challenging wind shifts and velocity changes that produced five different individual race winners in the five races on Saturday.  10 boats competed and half of them were family pairs with the top three spots going to father/daughter or father/son pairs. One out of town participant, Nick Southard, joined us from Lockport, NY.

Ralph Simpson and daughter Rachel, winners in 2007, won the regatta.  In second place was last year’s winner, Kevin Lofftus with son Alex.  In third was Rick Gammons with daughter, Brianna.  The top under 30 skipper was Simon Stampe with Emily Adams.

A delicious lasagna dinner was held Saturday night. Thanks to everyone who made this weekend possible and we’ll hope to see many people for next year’s regatta.
