The First Annual Ohio V-32 Invitational regatta
at Delco Park in Kettering was a success. We got to sail our boats in competition and met a lot of great sailors from the
club in Indianapolis. Thirteen skippers attended this First Annual Ohio Invitational Regatta. Five Indianapolis
Admirals raced with eight Kettering Model Sailing Club members. We raced all thirteen boats as a single fleet.
Temperatures were a very nice 70 degrees as we sailed under cloudy
skies in winds of 4 to 8 mph with infrequent lulls. A big, dark cloud passed to the south of us and for a while it looked
like we were going to get rained out--but we never got rain at all.
Hopefully this will become an annual event and maybe next year we jump into deeper water and
hold a regional regatta. There are additional photos on Mark Camden's web page http://markcamden.com/KMSC/07-18-09.htm.
