The final day at the GMC Yukon/Sailing World NOOD Regatta was a workout to remember.   The finish of the three-day ragatta required near aerobic spinnaker sets and takedowns, in a puffy, 6-14 knot breeze with big shifts that had crews shifting gears quickly.  After three days of racing in wind that built from 4/5 knots and into the mid-teens, with shifts and oscillations and varying pressure, the sailors who collected trophies were awarded for well deserved wins.

The crew of S2 7.9 BERNOULLI made their 1,500 mile trek from Linden, Michigan, worth the mileage by winning 5 out of 6 races for the S2 7.9 class win.  Mike Elliott and his crew had a perfect 1-1-1-1 record going into the final day.  BERNOULLI's only loss was a second place to Gregory Robinson's WIND-UP TOY, who edged Elliott out at the finish line by a half -boatlength.   (Source Annapolis Yacht Club web page)
