April 2010 Hello Racers! Welcome to the 2010 Mass Bay Sailing Yearbook. In the past couple of years we have been making the yearbook more of a reference guide to both Offshore sailing as well as One Design. Included in the book are Notice of Races (NOR’s), Sailing Instructions (SI’s), course descriptions, and a wealth of other information. So take a look through, and see what is new. Also, if you are reading this, you likely aren’t somebody that needs to be encouraged to race. But what about your friends? Do they race? Do they own a boat and don’t race? Please encourage them to do so. You can help them along by explaining simple things like how to fill out a PHRF certificate, or the nuances of SI’s. Anything we can do to get more sailors onto the race course the better. We all know that racing is its own reward. During the racing season log onto Mass Bay’s website (www.mbsa.org) to check what has been happening on the racing scene, as well as seeing how your competitors are doing in the season championships. Congratulations to the following skippers who competed in the 2009 Mass Bay Sailing Championship events, and won their respective classes: Merriman Trophy President’s Trophy Class A Class B KATABATIC SUPERSTITION NE Ocean Racing Circuit Trophy Duplin Trophy PHRF Trophy Vice President’s Bowl Doyle Trophy Eclipse Trophy Competitor of the Year J 105 Class C Class D Class E Class F Class G STEEL AWAY III WHARF RAT BLIXTEN MYSTERIOUS WAYS GOLDENEYE ANDIAMO SUPERSTITION Bradford Trophy Pursuit Class SUPERSTITION Gordon Hall Steve Spangler Chris Zibailo Doug & Peter Morgan RJ Dimattia Bruce Baker Steve Kavanaugh Peter Engel Lou Pina Steve Spangler Chris Zibailo Steve Spangler Chris Zibailo COMPETE WITH YOUR FLEET!
