2008 Ice Breaker Regatta - Tom Harrison Wins

Tom Harrison and his super slick Lido 14 took the honors in our opening regatta for the 2008 season. The first of the coming Buccaneers were out with Jay and Chris both on the water with their new boats. It was cold, wet and well... a typical Alaskan spring weekend.

For detailed results see 2008 Ice Breaker Results. Note cool new Sailwave feature - Back Calculated Elapsed time. This shows how much faster each boat would have had to sail to tie the winner of each race. These results and others for this season will also be consolidated with a links list from our public website at http://www.aksailclub.com/sheet08.htm. I've also updated our homepage on the site and fixed some dead links on our links page.

Thanks for your patience as we worked through some initial training issues with our new Sailwave scoring system.

Special thanks to Tom, Jody and the rest of the Race Committee for putting on a great event under some very trying conditions.

I was too busy trying to stay warm to take any photos. Dawn provided these:
