REGATTA REPORT
Star Pacific Coast Championships
October 16-17, 2004
Hosted by San Francisco YC
by Brad Nichol

This year’s Pacific Coast Championship was hosted by San Francisco Yacht
Club in Tiberon CA. It is always nice to sail out of SFYC when sailing on
the bay because it always seems to be sunny when the city is shrouded in
fog. We raced in the area just east of Angel Island by Richmond in a
frontal wind from the south-west (uncharacteristic for the bay). The
regatta was organized by Rick Peters and run by the ever-helpful Matt Jones
as PRO.

After an informal skippers meeting Saturday morning the fleet left the docks at 11am under tow by the race committee and the Team Pegasus tender. We reached the sailing area and warmed up in a light 5-8 knot breeze and a strong flood that wrapped around Angel Island and flowed north towards Richmond. Matt Jones ran two practice starts before starting the first race at 12:30pm.

With the current stronger on the right, a pin favored line, and more pressure on the left George Szabo sailing with Brad Nichol started at the pin with Bill Fields and Austin Sperry and Rick Peters with Mike Marzahl challenging for the same end of the line. The left looked good for the first few minutes until the fleet started seeing cruising boats in a strong breeze out of the right. Doug Smith sailing with John Rogers had started at the boat and went right and caught the new, fresh westerly first and rounded well in front of the fleet followed by Doug Steele sailing with Greg Hillman and Team Pegasus sailors Andy Escourt with Paul Larkin and Phillipe Kahn sailing with current World Champion Anders Ekstrom. The right stayed favored for the remainder of the race and the order held constant for the next three legs resulting in Doug Smith in first followed by Doug Steele and Andy Escourt in third.

The wind had filled to a fresh 10-12 knots by the start of the second race which was shortened to a one lapper after a long first race in the light air. George Szabo started at the boat and protected the right side to lead the tight race wire-to-wire and was closely followed by Doug Smith and Rick Peters.
