LAKE MONROE SAILING ASSOCIATION

To all LMSA Members and Friends:

Yesterday, March 27th, Sailors from the Lake Monroe Sailing Association headed to Crescent City to participate in the Crescent City Yacht Club's 2nd annual regatta.

The winds were brisk around 15 mph out of the Northeast which kept a couple of sailors off of the course but as they say, the show must go on. The race committee held three races on beautiful Lake Crescent. Confusion during the start of the first race as sailors, due to the wind did not here the horns signals from the committee boat. Game Over, Gene Cocoran's C-22 piloted by John only flew the Genoa which confused racers because Game Over was as fast on one sail compared to the others boats.

LMSA sailors took home four out of the six trophies handed out yesterday. Congratulations to Monkey Butt helm by Byron Hick for capturing first place in the board boat division. Sanford's own Andy Forrest and Mike Padgett took Show Me to a second LMSA First Place win in the Portsmouth division. Vulcan Mermaid helm by Jeff Herter crewed by daughter Rebeca, Grandson Michael and Greg Archambault & Susie Dix grabbed third placed in Portsmouth division. Mike Loughlin and Bill Kruger captured a controversy third place in the board class by only sailing one race.

Congratulation go to Gene and John on Game Over for a second place in Portsmouth class and Jim and Margaret Davis for their second place in the board boat division.

The Lake Monroe Sailing Association holds monthly meetings and sailing events on and around Lake Monroe. Come out and Sail.
