The Kamloops sailing association once again put on an awesome event. There was a great turnout from Royal Van with a trailer full of Opti's and one Radial- Joanna Moore and one Laser Kyle Martin. On the first day of racing there was no wind until around 4 o'clock. The time spent waiting was not wasted, as most of it was spent either tubing behind the coach boat or swimming. At 4 the wind came in and we got 3 races off. The first was in about 20kts of wind and it got lighter after that. We were in around 6:30 just in time for dinner. Kamloops Sailing put on a good show with one of the best regatta dinners I have had in a while. The next day brought more sun and great wind. With racing starting at 10 we got off 4 really solid races in building breeze. By the last race it was up around 30kts according to the race committees wind ex. In the end Joanna won the Radial fleet dropping a 3rd all the rest were bullets and Kyle won the Laser dropping an OCS and winning the rest. The RVYC Optis also brought home a lot of hardware.
