New England Singlehanded Championship US Coast Guard Academy October 26-27, 2002 Regatta Highlights: Saturday: Breeze E at the start, shifting NE and fading almost to nothing, then shifting N at 15-18. Rain all day,soaking the competitors to the bone. Ten races completed over triangle/windward/leeward courses. Harvard's Clay Bischoff dominant in the breeze, but close competition for the other places. No protests. Street Silvestri failed to show because of illness, but also failed to notify. Great cooperation from the competitors and excellent support from Cadet race managers. Thanks to RC Jim Condon and judge Iain Anderson. Sunday: Beautiful fall weather with a classic northwester on the river. 10-15 knots, with higher gusts. Breeze shifting further west at the end. Clay Bischoff continued to build is lead. Freshmen Zander Kirkland and Vince Porter battled closely, finishing one point apart at day's end, just as they started, but moving up from third and fourth to second and third. Brown's Alex Mehran slipped from third to fourth, but still claimed the final qualifying spot. Again, no protests in the close racing over triangle/windward/leeward courses. Lincoln White ran the eight races. Special thanks to Cadets Belanger, Hillyer, Wolstenholme, Grantham, Atherton, Jantzen, and MacDonnell for their regatta management assistance.
