SUMMARY
Racing began on Tuesday with medium/heavy breeze picking up throughout the day. Our sailors started in FJs. Our sailors worked hard in the windy conditions and competitive fleet. Race committee completed 8 races on day one.
Wednesday began in strong wind, but quickly died off after the first set. 6 more races were completed, this time in 420s. Wolverines continued to stay focused and earned multiple top 5 finishes! These are some encouraging results coming from our young team. Overall, Wolverines placed 16th. This was the first trip to nationals for many of our sailors and it proved to be a very fun, rewarding experience!
