These are the GPS tracks we recorded from Day 2 of the Regatta, which provided us with some great wind! There are three total races contained in the track, along with a few extra reaches in there to take advantage of the high winds after the races completed.

If you missed summer games then you missed out big time!!! it was a blast! I have never seen a race with such tight competition, we really had a fun time.  What a turn out, there were so many new boats with colorful sails filling the lake.  A great time was had by all.
We are proud to announce that the 2008 Utah Summer Games Regatta will be hosted by the Utah Sailing Association. We had a great turn out at last year’s event and hope to do so again this summer. All levels of sailors are welcome, you are sure to learn something new!

Shaun and I took his F18 up to Deer Creek on Saturday to get some practice in on his new boat before the Summer Games. Sven was up there with his Inter20, and Brett and Beverly were out on a small motor boat scouting the grounds for the Summer Games courses. The winds were incredible from 11am on and we had a great time double-trapping the boat for most of the day. We had a GPS on board and posted the tracks below…
Last weekend at Utah lake, The keel boats raced in the first half of
the Utah summer Games.
It started out as a rainy, overcast day. Later
in the morning the sky cleared up and it turned into a beautiful Day.
There was a decent turn out of about 9 boats. Shaun, Coty, Pia, and I
went out on our cats to play while the keel boats did their thing.
Wade, Collette and Werner sailed “Hell of a Woman”, They were there to
represent the USA. It was Wades first race on his boat and they had a
great time. He finished 7th overall, even though he didn’t take a
medal he did beat BYU.
Way to go Wade, It was a fun day, I hope the
weather is as nice for the summer games at Deer Creek. Brett did a
great job organizing and I think the Provo sailors Had a great time.
