Calm seas, with a nice fleet turnout, highlighted this weeks North Sea Open Regatta. With a fresh breeze of 18 knots out of the southwest, The North Sea regions were calm for most as two DNFs (Did Not Finish) were recorded on the day. The first DNF, occurring during the small boat portion, was due to a skipper’s connection dying on her late in the race. The second DNF, occurring during the big boat portion, was from a skipper crashing while crossing over region corners. The crowds that gathered along the beaches of the islands in the Ziziphus and Genip regions, and along the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier and small race dock in the Eden Jakana region, reveled in a spirited display display of fleet racing from this weeks skippers.

This weeks small boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea CCW (Counter-ClockWise) course, was made up of a majority of eight Bandit 22 LTEs. Three The Mesh Shop (TMS) Star Class, two sailing single-handed and one crewed respectively, one TMS Sea Boss – Rider, and one TMS Nacra 17 rounded out this weeks small boat fleet. Meanwhile, the big boat fleet, sailing on North Sea Olympic Course (Long), was made up of a majority of four TMS I-Mocca 60s. One TMS One Design 65, one TMS Ocean Beach, one Trudeau Runa IV, one Trudeau 12 Metre, and one Bandit 50/3 rounded out this weeks big boat fleet.

Today’s winner was Jenna (jnx1e Resident), with ViV (vivipezz Resident) second, and Zimtzicke (Nicole Myhre) in third place. Congratulations to all of you. Thank you to everyone who came to sail and spectate.

Race Notes:
Cole (ColeBatriani Resident) was disqualified (DSQ) during the small boat portion for failing to complete a 360° penalty turn as directed by a race director due to a Rule 13 While Tacking penalty.

“13 WHILE TACKING
After a boat passes head to wind, she shall keep clear of other boats until she is on a close-hauled course.
During that time rules 10, 11 and 12 do not apply. If two boats are subject to this rule at the same time,
the one on the other’s port side or the one astern shall keep clear.“

ViV (vivipezz Resident) and Zimtzicke (Nicole Myhre) both finished tied with 5 points. Rule A8.1 of Appendix A, Scoring, 2021 – 2024 World Sailing Racing Rules of Sailing is used to break this tie:

“If there is a series score tie between two or more boats, each boat’s race scores shall be listed in order of best to worst, and at the first point(s) where there is a difference the tie shall be broken in favour of the boat(s) with the best score(s). No excluded scores shall be used.“

Skipper Best Finish Next Best Finish
vivipezz Resident 1 4
Nicole Myhre 2 3

With the race results rearranged in best to worst finish order, per A8.1, the tie breaks in ViV’s favor with having a first place finish over Zimtzicke’s second place finish as her best.

Niem (NiemDarr Resident) and Cole (ColeBatriani Resident) both finished tied with 22 points. As the both have the exact same finishes in each race, a twelve point finish in the small boat portion and ten point finish in the big boat portion respectively, neither Rule A8.1 or A8.2 of Appendix A, Scoring, 2021 – 2024 World Sailing Racing Rules of Sailing will satisfy breaking their tie. Therefore, Niem and Cole remain tied in twelfth place overall.

With a fresh breeze of 18 knots out of the southwest, The North Sea regions were well behaved as two DNFs (Did Not Finish) were recorded on the day. Both DNFs, one a piece in each race, were from skippers crashing while crossing over region corners. The crowds that gathered at the lighthouses on the islands in the Ziziphus and Genip regions, as well as on the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier and small race dock in the Eden Jakana region, reveled in an energetic display of fleet racing from this weeks skippers. This weeks fleet, sailing on the North Sea CCW (counter-clockwise) and North Sea 108 courses, was made up of a majority of seven Bandit 22 LTEs. Three Bandit IFs rounded out this weeks Bandit fleet.

Race Notes:
Riz (RIZLER Rodex) was disqualified (DSQ) during the first race due to sailing with an incorrect racewind, 135° instead of the 225° set by the race director.

Rugger (ruggeromare Resident) was disqualified (DSQ) during the second race for finising while failing to complete a 360° penalty turn as requested by a race director due to a Rule 18.2 Giving Mark Room foul.

“18.2 Giving Mark-Room
(b) If boats are overlapped when the first of them reaches the zone, the outside boat at that moment shall
thereafter give the inside boat mark-room. If a boat is clear ahead when she reaches the zone,

Therefore, Rugger and Riz remain tied in ninth place overall.

Calm to slightly choppy seas, with a great fleet turnout, highlighted this weeks North Sea Open Regatta. The North Sea regions were generally well behaved as three DNFs (Did Not Finish) were recorded on the day. All three DNFs, one occurring during the small boat portion and two during the big boat portion, were the results of skippers crossing over region corners. The two DNFs during the big boat portion were the direct results of a particularly nasty corner rounding, around the northern tip of the island in the Ziziphus region, amongst a pack of six of the fleet at that point. The crowds that gathered along the beaches of the islands in the Ziziphus and Genip regions, and along the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier and small race dock in the Eden Jakana region, delighted in a rousing display of fleet racing from this weeks skippers.

This weeks small boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea CCW (counter-clockwise) course, was made up of a majority of ten Bandit 22 LTEs. Two Bandit IFs, and two The Mesh Shop (TMS) Star Class, one sailing crewed and one single-handed respectively, rounded out this weeks small boat fleet.

Calm seas, with a nice fleet turnout, highlighted the last North Sea Open Regatta of September, 2022. The North Sea regions were well behaved as one DNF (Did Not Finish) was recorded on the day. The lone DNF was attributed to a skipper crashing to desktop the moment she crossed the start in the small boats portion. The crowds that gathered along the shores of the islands in the Ziziphus and Genip regions, and along the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier and small race dock in the Eden Jakana region, cheered on an energetic display of fleet racing from this weeks skippers.

This weeks small boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea Triple Pink course, was made up of a majority of four Bandit 22 LTEs. One The Mesh Shop (TMS) Flying Shadow, one TMS Sea Boss – Rider, one crewed TMS Star Class, and one crewed Bandit IF rounded out this weeks small boat fleet. Meanwhile, the big boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea CCW (Counter-ClockWise) course, was made up of two WildWind RC-44s, two TMS I-Mocca 60s, two WildWind Open 60s, and one TMS Es Paradis1.

1The TMS Es Paradis has a preliminary handicap value of 1.00, as a still recently released boat with no lap times from North Sea Olympic Course (Long) (the standardized course for the North Sea Handicap Table). Several skippers have stepped forward as of the publishing of these results and volunteered to record times to establish a proper handicap for the Es Paradis.

The first DNF, occurring during the small boat portion, was due to a skipper pulling her boat immediately after the start as her connection degraded. The remaining two DNFs, occurring in both portions, were from skippers crashing while crossing over region corners. The crowds that gathered along the beaches of the islands in the Ziziphus are Genip regions, and along the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier and small race dock in the Eden Jakana region, enjoyed a thrilling display of fleet racing from this weeks skippers.

This weeks small boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea CCW (Counter-ClockWise) course, was made up of a majority of seven Bandit 22 LTEs. Three Bandit IFs, one The Mesh Shop (TMS) Flying Shadow, one crewed TMS Star Class, and one TMS Sea Boss – Rider rounded out this weeks small boat fleet. Meanwhile, the big boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea Butterfly course, was made up of a majority of three WildWind RC-44s. Two TMS I-Mocca 60s, one Bandit 55, and one Trudeau 12 Metre rounded out this weeks big boat fleet.
