Bengt Johansson and Fuzzy Wuzzy certainly didn't seem fuzzy at all as they racked up a dominating score line to win the Fleet 4 districts. With 12 boats racing, and two days
of breeze (and one of rain) we got in five races, all hard fought. John McArthur's Smiles took second, with Steve Buzbee's Blue Meanie third.
We had boats from both ends of the District, With Blue Meanie and Fuzzy Wuzzy treking all the way up from Raritan, Pale Rider comming up from City Island and Special Sauce making the (shorter) trip from the east end of the district in Black Rock. Getting 12 boats, and getting boats from all over the region marked this is the best attended Districts in years.
I hope I can speak for everyone who came out and raced in saying it was an incredible time, and that I look forward to seeing everyone back out again at future one design events. You can go take a look at
www.thephotoboat.com and see a ton of pictures that were taken on the water over the weekend.
Next up, the Red Grant, down in Raritan, on July 8 and 9th, followed by the NOOD, at Larchmont, September 9th and 10th, and then the J/30 North Americans, back at Cedar Point, on the following weekend, September 15th, 16th and 17th. Building on this weekend's turnout, I hope to see us solidly break 20 boats at the NAs.
