5th Annual Lake Norman Hospice Regatta
Five races were completed in light to moderate (approximately 4
to 12 knot) breezes in the 2 day event hosted by Lake Norman Yacht
Club, with assistance from Outrigger Yacht Club and Peninsula Yacht
Club, other clubs located on Lake Norman. This year's event touted
a total of 39 boats competing in 3 divisions. The Championship division
was comprised of 13 boats ranging in PHRF from 51 to 261. Division
2 was comprised of 11 boats with ratings from 114 to 279. A third
division consisted of 15 Lightnings, the result of combining their
5th annual Voodoo regatta with the Hospice event. Overall winner Michael Jones is a former member of both Lake Norman
Yacht Club and Outrigger Yacht Club, and trailered his SR-33, "Outrageous"
from the coast to compete in (and win) two charity regattas at Lake
Norman in three weekends. His crew consisted of many familiar faces
at Lake Norman, including brother Richard Jones (2-time past Champion
on Soverel 33 "Outrageous"), Gene Rohrer, Dan Myers, "Hobie"
Cadieux, and James Bible. The crew was rounded out by Michael's
wife, Robin Jones, Durham resident Mike Williams, and newcomer to
the sport, Matt Hamric. Michael, Richard, and Dan have been sailing
with and against each other on Lake Norman and many other venues
for the past 30 years; Gene has been doing the same for more than
15 years. Other winners at the regatta included Robin & Leanne Roberts
and Joe Waters (Ultimate 20, "Vertigo"), who placed second
in the Championship division and first in Spinnaker B. John Ogden
(Santana 30/30, "Schock Therapy"), also one of the two
regatta co-chairs, sailed to a first place in Nonspinnaker A, and
Mike Wasner (Catalina 22, "Rode Trip") took first in Nonspinnaker
B. The Lightning class winner was Augusta, GA sailor Bob Harkrider
(#14532, "BooNooNooNoos"). It is worth noting that the winners of each of the Division 1 and Division 2 classes (Spinnaker A & B and Nonspinnaker A & B) took 5 straight bullets (A.K.A. firsts).
The event, in combination with the Party At The Point, netted approximately $27,000.00.
