Last Race of Series. March 20, 2009
Posted by Joe in J22 Sailing, One Design Sailing, Racing in Jackson.trackback
This weekend is the last Winter Series race. I think Team White Boat has it all locked up. Lots of bullets and second place finishes. So the battle is for second between Blew Bayou2 and Fresh Aire. Every race counts when it gets near the end of the series because of the way JYC scores the series.
We only count the best six races of an 11 or 12 race series. So if you race a lot, you have the opportunity to throw out a bad race. If you have 6 races in the bag and one of them is a 5th or 6th then a bullet or a second place finish makes a huge difference. Of course you have to score well is the others too. But my point is, near the end of the series everyone is jockeying for an improved score.
Stay tuned for the results from Sunday. I’ll add this link for the results, but it may not work for everyone.
