RYC Totally Dinghy – Totally Dude!

Richmond YC was busy this weekend with 140 boats racing their Totally Dinghy Regatta. With a record turn-out, sailors found themselves dealing with "gusts of four knots" on Saturday – seems like the winter doldrums set in early. According to race chair Gail Yando, racers saw winds up to 15 knots through the weekend.

Classes raced included: El Toro, Buccaneer, Opti, Snipe, Byte, Laser, International 14, Wylie Wabbit, 29er, FD, CFJ, FJ, Day Sailor, Southampton OC, Potrero OC and Lightning. For the Lightning, Byte and Day Sailor Classes, it was also their annual championships. Dan Gravatt took first in the Lightning class, Dan Ouellet  took first in the Byte class, and Steve Lowry took first in the Day Sailor class. There are too many results to post them all, so check out www.richmondyc.org for the tallies.
