Uncle Al's front
page splash: "We the North" Strikes Again
David and Anne Pugh hold
their rewards as Regatta Chair, Jerry
Thompson, looks on.
(190618) On the weekend of June 15-16, when the
Toronto Raptors a.k.a. "We the North" won their first
ever NBA championship, another "We the North" -
Michigan and Ontario - took the top two Wayfarer spots
in the Eastern Wayfarer Championships. The event was
part of the 62nd North Carolina Governor's Cup Regatta
hosted by the Carolina SC on the lovely, large waters
of Kerr Lake which straddles the border between
eastern Virginia and North Carolina. Taking the
Eastern title in a five races sailed in lovely hiking
breezes and warm sunshine, were Oakville, Ontario's
David and Anne Pugh, who withstood a spirited
challenge from East Lansing, Michigan's Marc Bennett
and wife, Julie. Series 3rd in the 12-boat Wayfarer
fleet went to Uwe Heine and his wife, Nancy, of Lake
Townsend on a tie-breaker over Jim Cook and Cathy
Leonard. Complete updated Wayfarer results plus two
albums here.
More soon.
