Ferrarone Team Race Intersectional
Hosted by Yale at the MCNay Family Sailing Center
April 4-5, 2009
Boats: 420s
Judge: Jamie Ewing '99
RC: Bill Healy and Yale Undergrads

Saturday:

It was an epic day of sailing at the first day of the Ferrarone Team Race 
Intersectional hosted by Yale at the McNay Family Sailing center.  The breeze 
started out strong, but continued to build as the day went on. The wind came 
from the West, coming down from the hill sext to the sailing center.  The first 
beats were in the most steady wind, but also the biggest breeze while final leg 
was close to shore and characterized by both strong velocity and wind shifts.  
The teams had a tough time keeping stable combinations because of the multiple 
puffs and shifts at the same time on the same leg.  As the day went on, large, 
rolling waves swept in from Long Island Sound, complicating
matters because they were not lined up with the wind.  In the morning, the 
sailors had their lightest conditions of the day, with the normal breeze not 
exceeding 15 knots with puffs to 20.  That was just the
start of the carnage, though, with numerous boats flipping before the
sequence, during the sequence, at the start, on the legs, at the mark
roundings and even right at and after the finish line.  Soon, though, the 
spectators began to have even a better viewing time, with the wind
continuing to build, with the highest recorded puff clocking at 35 knots. It 
was not uncommon for boats to be flogging both the main and jib and fully hiked 
while still in danger of flipping before the puffs gave way to light conditions 
with the sailors heeled to windward and occasionally capsizing to windward.  It 
was particularly gruesome to watch the sailors flip near the start line, where 
they were swept downwind just feet from the edges of the rocks.  By the end of 
the day, there more than 30 capsizes had occurred, with few boats not having 
mud on their masts from the shallow bottom of Granite Cove.  In all, 45 races 
were sailed in Yale's 420s with new mains and old jibs, with three protests 
filed.  Two protests were disallowed while while resulted in a disqualification 
for Boston College against Bowdoin.  Coaches were on the water in the coach 
boat along with a judge boat.

Tomorrow, there will be a Gold round robin with the top six teams and a
Silver round robin for the bottom four teams.  The forecast calls for breezy 
conditions from the Northwest tomorrow, so expect more carnage in the puffy, 
shifty, windy conditions.

Thanks to Jamie Ewing ’99 for hearing the protests and the Yale undergraduates 
for running races.  RP information will be included with the final 
results—there were many substitutions.

Note that yesterday’s results included a mistake: Roger Williams was scored as 
losing to Wisconsin, who they actually beat.

Sunday:  The day started off with a Gold round robin with the top six teams 
from yesterday.  The day was a bit calmer than yesterday, with winds that 
started from the Northwest. There were no capsizes, and the day started off 
with full hiking conditions, with large shifts.  Just like yesterday, the wind 
was very shifty and puffy.  After the 15-race Gold fleet round robin, the 
six-boat Silver fleet went out to do a round robin.  The racing was good at 
first, before the sea breeze started to fill in and fight the Northwesterly 
wind.  After numerous course adjustments in response to the varying strength of 
the sea breeze that was filling in, the Silver round robin was finally 
completed around 3:20, so there was not enough time to attempt another round 
robin.  While some puffs probably were around 20 knots, the normal breeze was 
lighter, with some lulls as low as 5 knots.  Thanks again to Jamie Ewing ’99 
for judging and the Yale sailors for handling race committee work on a toug!
 h day.  Congratulations to the Terriers of Boston University for an impressive 
win at the Ferrarone Team Race after placing third last year.  The event honors 
former Yale sailor Ted Ferrarone ’98, who was instrumental in creating the 
regatta for the Bulldogs.
