With the racing concluded for the day and ultimately the<br />
regatta, it was time to head in and prepare for the party at<br />
the dub that night. A fine Italian buffet was served and live<br />
entertainment by "NRP" (No Requests Please) had the<br />
Happy Feet moving. The bar and the ballroom were buzzing<br />
with activity until the late hours. The usual post race conversations<br />
filled the air.<br />

Committee gave up on the breeze and decided to give those<br />

who were traveling an early start home. Awards were presented<br />
to the top three and everyone was encouraged to<br />
head to Annapolis the following weekend for the third and<br />
final leg of the Triple Crown.<br />
A good time was had by all who attended. Hopefully next<br />

and more fun. See you all next year.<br />

third top honors trophy in three tries. It wasn't easy for Erik,<br />
however, having to score a second in the final race to nail<br />
down his victory. Four other skippers had divided up to five<br />
bullets in their effort to unseat him.<br />
George Welch, Jr. (KU-1) finished a close second to T-18, PLACE BOAT<br />
but at least had the consolation of winning the first "E-scow 1 T-18<br />
Triple Crown" award. Bob Donat (LE-3); Dave Magno 2 KU-11<br />
(l.A-99), who has won the other two Sprints; and Rick 3 LE-3<br />
Turner (CH-6) took third through fifth respectively, each<br />
winning at least one of the races in the process. Also of note<br />
was that Dan Crabbe (f-8) scored bullets in the last two<br />
races to pull himself up into sixth place overall.<br />
