2011 US Nats results - June 17-19
Cabrillo Beach YC - San Pedro CA
by Pete Mohler
The 2011 I14 US nats was won by USA 1168 Paul Galvez & David Liebenberg.
Somewhat lightly attended - it's the economy stupid - yet great racing for the top boats.
Paul has been going very well the last few years - but this is his first nationals title in 20 years of trying - well done boys
Friday - day one, was two races inside the breakwater, then a 15 mile long distance race up to pt fermin a couple of times - wind friday was southerly at 6 to 8 then clocking right to low teens.
Sat - day two, was raced outside the breakwater and three races were held - class newcomers Jake Sorosky & Steve Natrig had a good day with a 1, 3, 1, in an older B2 boat - more breeze on than friday - yet not up to hurricane gulch standards.
Sunday - day three was raced outside and was lighter with a top breeze of maybe 10 kts, then building to the 11s and 12s, and loads of holes to get lost in - last year's nat champs Brad Ruetenik & Patrick Murray were leading, 2 pts up on Galvaz - but the results for the three races mirrored the final results - 1, 2, 3, 4 each race for the 1, 2, 3, 4, boats.
Kaneohe, H.I. (Oct 9, 2010) – The sixth running of the
Pacific Rim International 14 Championships started today in picture
perfect Hawaiian Trade wind conditions on Kaneohe Bay. The I-14 fleet at
the Kaneohe YC puts this race on biannually. This year twenty-four
boats registered for this Horizon Lines sponsored high performance
sailboat race. The event is also sponsored by the US branch of the
Global Sports Alliance, which is an ecology focused worldwide
organization that promotes clean air and clean water through sporting
events (see gsa.com). Horizon Lines continues to be the corporate
sponsor that supports ecological based community programs that promote
education and awareness of the environment. This sporting event has a
youth sailing component that provides the top Hawaii junior sailors to
ride on an International 14. [ more... ]
The I-14 Nats went down in San Diego, Friday through Sunday, Aug 20-22, and did not disappoint. Ronstan, Sailing Supply, Glaser Sails and North Sails all contributed with San
Diego Yacht Club putting on a first rate event both on and off the water. After
sailing Nats in a breezy Seattle, Richmond, then Gorge the last three years,
there was a movement in the fleet to have a more moderate venue and Summertime
Point Loma brought its typical conditions with breeze ranging from 10-12+,
8-10, and 6-8 kts on the respective days, with a nice south swell creeping in
strong on Sunday...[more]

I prefer Stone pale ale myself. As to your question, I don't know, but sure glad to be here. Latest greatest beer for me is Avery Brewing Company's Czar imperial stout. This is not a beer 14 sailors should consume…
