ABYC Labor Day Regatta

Nine A-Cats gathered at the ABYC for the annual Labor Day Regatta. The weather was hot with light and shifty winds, compounded by confused wake from motored vessels.

While some wondered if they would even be able to fly a hull, Pete Melvin seemed at ease out on his trapeze -- straight bullets through seven races.

Post Worlds & Midwinter's Florida A cat sailing

Feb 8,9,10

Notice to all A cat sailors.

To coincide with the upcoming worlds and midwinter's, all A cat sailors are invited to join in for a long weekend of good racing and fun times at the beautiful Ft Desoto state park. 15min from St Petersburg, 30 min from Tampa Florida. The generous southern 505 fleet 15 have invited us to join in on to their already successful 505 midwinter championships.This can be the best time for sailing in Florida and Ft Desoto park is a beautiful place to sail! I know that there are a few Northerners, Texans and others that would like to get more use out of their toys so keep the this in mind before arranging to ship your boats straight home from the Worlds or Midwinter's.

To further ease the A cat bug we are offering for those keen enough, a chance to bridge these two or three FL regattas by considering joining us on the weekend of 15th and 16th of Dec for our regular Gulfport Yacht Club A cat sailing. Please also keep in mind the Gulfport Yacht Club A cat and F16 invitational in March.

I know for allot of people time seems to be the limiting factor when planning sailing opportunities, with this in mind our thoughts were to provide competitive weekend/ long-weekend regattas to minimize time away from Family and work. With this said St Petersburg and Ft Desoto park is also a great venue for families. For people interested we can arrange storage at GYC between events. We have a great local fleet now of 10 A cats and a couple of extras within an early morning drive away so a min of 10 - 12 without travelers. Flights in and out of Tampa are very well priced and we have a core group of local A caters that I am sure would be happy to pick up drop off and possibly house people over these weekends.

If you are interested please respond and email me a quick expression of interest: bmoon AT ronstan.us. Please also feel free to fill in an entrance form on the NOTICE OF RACE and send it in to Ethan Bixby at North Sails (postal address is on the entry form)

I will follow this email with further information on accommodation and further logistics in the coming days.

Looking forward to seeing allot of you in Islamorada in a few weeks time.

Worlds Advertising/Promotion

The list of the approved entrants to the 2007 A-class WC is really impressive, no doubt the best ever with four past A class Champion (Glenn Ashby, Scott Anderson, Pete Melvin and Mitch Booth, who comes back to sail a major A class event after 13 years), six Olympic medalists (Randy Smyth, Jay and Pease Glaser, Charlie Ogletree, Andrew Landenberger and Goran Marstrom), a world known maxi-multihull skipper (Cam Lewis), a 18' skiff WC (Howie Hamlin), the current DN WC (Matt Struble), a prominent yacht designer (Mike Drummond) etc.

Very seldom a sailing event has gathered such a various and qualified attendance.

Equally impressive is the boats' roster which includes the first ever A-cat fitted with a wing sail, (according to me Ben Hall's project is worth at least the same deal of attention paid to Rohan Veal's flying Moth), the radical platform designed by Richard Roake for Ian and John Lindhal, (I read rumours about a new type of mainsail to be tailored for it by Randy Smyth), the evolutionary boat developed by Peter Cogan, the new Swedish state-of-the-art wonder (the Marstrom M5) together with the more or less old Flyer Mk2, Bimare/VMI XJ, Tools...

Long Beach A-Cat Helicopter Shots

Some of the best photos and video you can see of sailing is taken from a Helicopter. The Long Beach A-Class fleet was lucky enough to have that opportunity on September 9, 2007 when Howard Hamlin took out his helicopter and Jay Glaser from Glaser Sails took photos, Howard took video and Keith and Howard took turns flying. The catalyst for the photo shoot was to get some sail development photos, but Jay also took some "tour shots" since you don't get aerial photos of your boat every day (and he was using my Canon Rebel XT SLR camera :-)

Nacra A2 & A3 co-designers Pete Melvin of Morrelli & Melvin and Jeremy Laundergan of Askeland Engineering are both sailing Nacra A2s. Pease Glaser of Glaser Sails is sailing a new Nacra A3. All three are using Glaser Sails.

Huge thanks to Howard, Keith and Jay!

Lake Hopatcong Fall Regatta and Atlantic Coast Champoinship





































Atlantic Coast Champoinship series








Lake Hopatcong Fall A-Class Regatta For many more photos from this weekend click on the link below to go to a Shutterfly.
Lake Hopatcong A- Class Fall Regatta and Atlantic Coast Championship Series

The 2nd Annual Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club Fall A-Class Regatta was held this weekend September 29-30th.

The weekend started with a full and very long day with 15 sailors coming in Thursday night (Sept 27th) or early Friday morning for a full day of Coaching with Lars Guck. Lars started with some of the very basic concepts of boat handling and added some of the latest most up to date theory and knowledge of A-Class Racing. Starting strategies, Gate rounding strategies, and Sail trim and weight distribution were discussed with a very complete question answer session. After 2 hours of Lars demonstrating on his boat and running thru his version of tacks, string pulling, etc.. a break for lunch with Pizza and Sub-sandwiches was enjoyed. Then it was off the water for a series of drills and races.

Lars had all the sailors do repetitive starts on 3 minute count down and mixed in a short course one lap race every once in a while to keep everyone engaged. While the sailors were doing their drills a Video was recording their progress and showed later back in the club for further analysis. The starting line at first was very deep as sailors had a wide range of experience. As the drills progressed the group at the line as the gun went off, was very tight and very competitive, showing proof that practice does work. During the entire time Lars was barking out suggestions to the sailors and providing some limited one on one coaching when indicated. The clinic ended and boats were put away, only to allow a short period of time before the first party was to start. Peter and Nancy Hefele again hosted the Friday night dinner party at their lake front home with great music, food and plenty of cocktails. All guest sailors were shuttled back late in the evening to their respective host homes via boat.

Saturday we woke up to a beautiful sunny cloudless day with a 10-15 knot breeze out of the NW. The rest of the sailors from out of town arrived and we had some breakfast at the club and started 28 sailors on the line for the first race. The conditions were gusty and provided some very challenging windward beats but some fun and exciting down wind runs.

One of the best parts of Saturday was everyone walking around the club lawn looking at all the new boat designs and shapes. Peter Cogan and Ben Hall had their new hulls there, Steve Clarks design was represented by Bill Vinning from CT. John and Ian Lindahl also made the trip from Michigan with their new LR2 hull shape. Fred Smith from Canada was also there with his brand new LR2. All of this new technology sitting side by side with 30 year old CatNip boats. John Lindahl (Michigan boat builder) and Cal Fuller (father of the CatNip, from Lake Hopatcong) spent many hours discussing boat design. But, nothing was more interesting then seeing Ben Hall set up his new Fixed Wing boat and push it off the ramp into the Lake. We also had a Hydrofoil expert snooping around all day too looking to see what the A-Class is up to now and how he could push that technology into his new Hydro foil Cat boats.

Unfortunately we had several causalities right of the bat with two major collisions occurring and sending three boats back to ramp. The 30 year old CatNip had its starboard bow ripped off at the start, amazing enough the helmsmen was able to sail the boat back to the club by keeping the damaged hull out of the water on the starboard tack, and keeping it from sinking. An XJ was speared and repaired via duct tape for the rest of the races. Lars Guck took 1st place in the 3 races Mike Gruber from LHYC, Ian Lindahl from Michigan, and Danny Goritski from LHYC taking turns at second and third.

Saturday night, “Rums of Puerto Rico” sponsored a Caribbean theme party and dinner at the LHYC. Nearly 75 sailors and guests attended the dinner, live DJ music and dancing until late at night. Sailors were again dragged away to their host homes for some well needed rest. Needless to say all the rum was consumed.

Sunday morning a very slow start to the day was felt by all sailors. A beautiful morning was found with bright sunshine and a light breeze out of the east. Everyone was egor to get another set of races in before calling it a weekend. The breeze shifted immediately to the North East then back again to the east. True to lake form, the wind was making it challenging. Only one race was attempted and a 5 boat photo finish was seen by the spectators at the finish line with local Danny Goritski taking the last race by a foot. Ben Hall pull across at third with Lars Guck third.

After breakdown and reloading the boats on the trailers a barbeque was served up with various meats. The award ceremonies were held afterward out on the lawn. During the announcements, it was noted that within the crowd there was significant representation of the A-Class best sailors. Call Fuller, Ben Hall, “Doc” Stern, John Lindahl, Lars Guck, Mike Gruber were all winners, most multiple times, of the North American Championships. As the awards were given out, Lars Guck with his series of bullets took first place in the fall regatta series, Mike Gruber 2nd, Ian Lindahl with the LR2 hulls got 3rd place, Danny Goritski 4th and Jim Godby 5th.

Since this was the last of the Atlantic Coast Championship series, we also handed out the trophies for this 4 event series. The series is based on the four race weekends held at West River in April, Bristol in June, Cayuga in July and Hopatcong in September. Jim Godby was the only sailor going to all four events, with Mark Skeels, Chris Brown and Andrew Burdett going to three of the four. The First Place trophy was captured by Jim Godby, with Lars Guck getting 2nd, Mark Skeels 3rd, Chris Brown 4th and Tony Arends getting 5th.

Now we are all done and it is time to rest. 3 days of good sailing, socializing, and talking about sailing has worn us all down. Can’t wait to do it again next year.



*Must have attended more then one event and was given a total number of sailors at that event plus one if they did not attend.
** To not give benefit to a sailor who did not attend more then 3 races, the throw out was the lowest non-attended race score. If a sailor attended three or more race events the throw out was the highest score.

New A-Class from Roake and Lindahl

There is a new A boat sailing. This probably comes as no surprise to many of you as we haven’t kept it a secret and photos are on the web. The idea of building another boat was generated about a year ago when my son, Ian, thought “we” should build a new boat. The last A I built was 18 years ago and sailed it in the 1988 Worlds. Ian always liked that platform and thought that todays, more powerful rigs could drive it to potential. I had to contact the designer of that boat, Richard Roake, to see if he had any ideas to improve that design. Little did I know he would put all his energy and hours of computer time into a brand new boat. The question was “If I design it will you build it?” My answer was “yes” and we were off and running. The combination of Roakes computer and my epoxy and sandpaper had worked twenty years ago and has worked well again. Ian knew what was good and what was bad from his sailing experience in A boats, 18 squares and a variety of other boats. Dad listened and since we had a brand new design we came up with a very unique build method for the boat. We strip planked a hull shape with 3/8” thick foam. The shape was achieved by using female building frames CNC cut from Roakes design. The shape was carboned with WEST System epoxy and we came out with an exceptionally stiff platform. New boards and rudders were designed and built as well. We used an existing rig of Hall Spars and Glasier sail so we could evaluate the new platform independent of a rig change. So far the performance has exceeded expectations. This boat just feels different underfoot. There is almost no pitch, great stability downwind, and excellent windward VMG. We believe the design premise of a more responsive hull has been achieved. We have built two boats (one has gone to Fred Smith, who gambled with us, right from the beginning) and will have a third built in time for the Worlds.

SAILOR'S CHECKLIST FOR THE 2007 A-CLASS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

All competitors racing the 2007 A-Class World Championship are asked to be
ready with the following SIGNED (by an approved IACA measurer) documentation
for the platform, rig, and sails they plan to enter:



  1. IACA General Calculation Form

  2. IACA Sail Measurement Form (s) for sail to be raced at event and any
    backup sail (some sailmakers are IACA approved measurers so check the tack
    of your sail to see if the measurements are there and signed by a measurer)

  3. IACA Hull Measurement Form

  4. IACA Mast and Boom Measurement Form (s) for mast and boom to be used
    and any backups

  5. Copy of Insurance Policy (with $100K minimum liability coverage)




If you have all of the above, your measurement process will be simple and
fast and will consist of weighing your boat and stamping your equipment. If
you have any equipment you currently own and plan to race at this event that
is not measured, you should make every effort to get this done prior to
arrival to assist with expediting the measurement process and competitor
check-in.



If you have any questions about getting your equipment measured prior to
this championship, please contact Carla Schiefer at schiefers@earthlink.net
and she will advise you on how best to get it done. In the event you do have
equipment that will have to be measured at the event, it would be good to
let Carla know so she can plan the number and type of measurements that will
need to be done.



We appreciate everyone taking care of this prior to arrival in Islamorada.

Canadian A-Cat Challenge

Bob,

In the spirit of great Canadian challenges (and victories) our fleet would like to officially commit to hosting a full social evening on the Thursday night at the World Championships.

A couple of great victories come to mind. The War of 1812 you might recall from your history books was won buy our side and a little more recently we had "The Looney Affair" at the Salt Lake Olympics, which provided one of the best gold medal hockey games in years. While we can't promise a road hockey game we are promising a good time for all complete with some good Canadian Brew, food and other surprises to keep people thinking.

On behalf of Fred, Fred and myself, we look forward to seeing y'all at the Islander in November.

John Vincze
President
Canadian A Class Catamaran Association

West Coast Results are IN

We have completed the West Coast qualification regattas for the 2007 IACA World Championships in Islamarada Florida this November.

The first event was the SOCKS regatta run by the Seattle Yacht Club out of the Corinthian Yacht Club on June 19 and 20. Nine A-Cats participated including Ian Storer from San Diego and Jeremy Laundergan from Long Beach. Four races were run on Saturday in very windy 20-25 conditions with COLD 48 degree water. The waves were fairly large even though the Puget Sound current was going with the wind. The waves got larger when the tide shifted! The fleet recovered over a great seafood dinner that night. Sunday had more moderate breeze and the fleet was able to complete another five races.

The last of the three events was the A-Cat Summer Open at the Santa Cruz Yacht Club on June 2-3. Six competitors participated including Steve Hansen and Jeremy Laundergan who drove up from Long Beach. In Santa Cruz, the wind at this time of year depends on the clouds. If there are clouds, there isn't wind. If it clears, you will have wind and lots of it. Saturday racing started at 1pm in moderate wind which built steadily through the second race when it was blowing a solid 25 knots at the 2nd weather mark rounding. The fleet was tempted to have the third race as scheduled, but decided that no one wanted to order a new mast. The race committee offered to start racing earlier on Sunday to make up the race. In a similar progression, racing started at noon in moderate breeze which built to the low 20s by the end of the third race.
