2006 North American Championship: Day 4
United States A-Cat Association (USACA)
Friday September 15 was the fourth and final day of racing for the 2006 United States A-Class Catamaran Association's North American Championship being run out of the Bristol Yacht Club in Rhode Island. It was moderate northerly breeze and drizzle for the final two races of the 14 race event. Bristol local Lars Guck continued his dominating performance sailing a perfect series. Another local sailor, Phil Kinder, sailed a very consistent series for a comfortable margin holding 2nd place. Bob Hodges from Ponchatrain YC in Louisiana also sailed a consistent series for 3rd overall. Multiple North American champion and Bristol local Ben Hall sailed into fourth. And multiple World and North American champion Pete Melvin recovered from the collision on opening day to take 5th overall.
Thanks again to the Bristol fleet as well as the Bristol YC staff and outstanding race committee for putting on a great event in 2006!
