Saturday, May 11 - High School Doublehanded Champs - Mallory Trophy


20 high school teams from around the country arrived on Friday to compete in the Doublehanded National Championship for the Mallory Trophy.  Chicago put on quite the show today with temperatures in the 40s all day and the winds doing every single thing possible.  We started the day at 210, 5-7 knots and incrementally walked right 200 degrees throughout the day.  The breeze reached as high as 30 knots for one race.  Needless to say it was a very long and cold day on the water but allowed for some great racing.

We had an all star team of RC, Judges and Volunteers to make the whole thing happen and they were amazing.  Hoping for some more consistent winds tomorrow!

And can someone please get the kids from the USVI some warmer clothes????
