Well, we had eight boats show up for the Larchmont NOOD, a nice solid turnout. A huge thanks to everyone who came out and raced, especially the folks who had to deliver from Raritan and Cedar Point.
Ed Austin, with Chinook, started with a bang, (in fact 3 bullets and a 5th) on Saturday, and then held on with a 4 and a 3 on Sunday to hold off Eric Robins and Laser beam, who seemed determined to set a record for consistency, posting *five* thirds in a row before breaking out with a bullet on the final race to lock down second place. He had John McArthur's Smiles and Steve Buzbee's Blue Meanie close behind, with John pulling out the third and Steve the fourth. Paddy Wagon rounded out the top pack, and Youthful Indiscretion, Excalibur and Anticipaion battled hard in the back.
Larchmont YC's NOOD RC did a stellar job, banging out four races on Saturday, and two more on Sunday. The racing was competitive, with a three way tie for second after Saturday's racing, and everything up for grabs until the final race.
If you skipped this race, you missed out on some steller racing, and a really good regatta.
