Ft Myers Sunfish Series: April 10, 2005

By John Kremski

We had our first race at the new (temporary) Edison Sailing Center on the north shore park, US 41. We will be sailing out of the park while the new clubhouse is being built, and Lee County Parks has set up a pretty nice location to tide us over, with gazebos, storage building, and fenced area to lock stuff up while we are out on the water. (we will have private porta-pottis next time!)

A nice easterly breeze, 10-15 knots provided some great racing for the eight boat fleet. Brian Wohlfson from Fort Lauderdale (10 points) bested Jack Scragg (14 points) and Jim Somers (21 points) with Sharon Del Bianco moving up to fourth place (28 points) Complete results are below. Cindy Scragg, Diana Corbett, and John Kremski handled the race committee duties.
