NYYC Women's 2v2 Regatta
Our EYC Women's Team attended the inaugural NYYC's Women's 2v2 Regatta on the weekend of May 22-23. Eight competitive teams raced over the weekend and the caliber of the competition was impressive: world champions, America's cup sailors, and even some Olympic medalists were on the course.
Read HERE for a recap of the weekend with final results (with a great in-article photo of Team EYC's camaraderie with the other sailors.)

Team EYC Members: Hannah Polster (Team Captain), Kate Barrows, Kaitlin Driscoll, Lily Lichtenstein, Katie Rodger, Kelsey Wheeler, Morgan Cuthbertson, Paula Grasberger, Megan Yeigh, and Maggie Swanson.
US Match Racing Championship Qualifier
Boston YC hosted the USMR Championship Qualifier in Sonars on May 22-23. In the event was an Eastern Team: Alden Reid (skipper), Hannah Lynn, Peter Lynn, and Eliza Garry. EYC's Nancy Glover was also involved with the regatta as a judge.
Day one of the event was challenging with minimal breeze. Sunday the 22nd made up for it though with sunshine and some great wind to get through a Round Robin, a Knockout Round, and then the Final and Petit Final. EYC's team ended up in 5th place. See the full results, here.
Thanks to Past Commodore Phil Smith for the great photos of the event, see more, here.
ILCA's Atlantic Coast Championships
EYC's Niall Kearney went with his family and his Laser Radial 189769 (ILCA 6) to North Carolina to compete in the Atlantic Coast Championship on May 22-23. After shaking off the cobwebs from the past year on Day 1, he had some great Day 2 races, including a finish in the top ten of the fleet. See full results, here.
The photos from the event show some strong competition across the three fleets. See them, here and here.
Sailing Committee Meeting Postponed
The Sailing Committee Meeting planned for tonight at 7pm over Zoom has been postponed to allow us to meet at the club in person. Stay tuned for more information coming soon from Committee Chair, Doug Morgan.
