2026 Regatta Season Starts Strong with Force Five

What a beautiful day on the water! 

The wind was light starting out but filled into a moderate breeze that allowed for a couple of races.

There were 7 boats racing, all in the spinnaker class. Competing were S2's, J22s, a Johnson 18 and a Benetou. 

After the second and last race, Paul Latour and David Curtze were tied for second and third. Paul won the tie breaker and secured second place. 

Many thanks to the race committee, and PRO Sam Beckman. Additional thanks to Jim Millman for coming from HIYC to help out and Paul Heintz for making the trophies.

And thank you to Alicia Noble and Ricardo Machion for photos and information.


Want to get involved with racing? We are holding the new PPYCU Race Academy on March 21st and March 28th to help introduce the crew positions and get some hands-on practice and training for Wednesday Night Racing. Hope to see you there!
