John Romanko Wins the Elvstrom Regatta in San Fransico

"Congratulations to the Canadian John Romanko who traveled all the way
from Vancouver to win the 2008 Isadore Zellerbach Perpetual Trophy. He
becomes the first sailor to win the Elvstrom Zellerbach in both a FINN
and a LASER having won in the Laser in 2006. In a tie breaker, John
beat 2002, 2005, and 2007 winner Darrell Peck who is also the current
North American and Masters North American Champion. 2007 FINN National
Champion Andy Casey finished third. We had 17 FINNS on the line sailing
two races Saturday and three races Sunday. I think all would agree that
by the end of race number five on Sunday we were thoroughly exhausted.
It was definitely a windy series."
