Miami OCR 2009 Slide Show

Miami OCR 2009

We had 20 Royal Van Members at the regatta this year and had good success and plenty of learning experiences all around.

Kevin and I towed the Big trailer with 11 lasers , a RSX board , and 2 coach boats.

Those that headed south were:

Alanna Vitery, Isabella Bertold, Keamia Rasa, Jen Spalding, Erika Vranizan in the Radial Class

Andy Wong, Ben Scott, Alexander Heinzman, Ricardo Montemeyer, Luke Ramsay, Abe Torchinsky, Mike Leigh, Derik Vranizan in the Laser Class

Ben Remoker, Hunter Lowden and Kevin Grierson in the 49er , Bruce Millar in the 2.4 M Class

Nicola
Girke in the RSX class,Eric Holden in the 470 class,John Romanko in the Finn Class

Kevin Black and Al Clark Coaches


Generally it was a light air event with strong north breezes on the final day of the metal races.

Highlights for the results of the team was Jen third and Isabella ninth in the Radials,
Mike Leigh forth in the Laser, Nicola sixth in the RSX, Bruce Millar forth in 2.4m

Results are at:

We keep the trailer in Florida for the other Laser events coming in Febuary, Womens North Americans in Fort Lauderdale and the Mids East Regatta in Clearwater.

Our new truck was the envy of many in the US Sailing centre parking lot

Thanks for the support Royal Van
