National One-Design Awards Presented
In addition to seminars and workshops, US SAILING presented several awards to one-design sailors and organizations:
Fishing Bay Yacht Club (FBYC) in Deltaville, Va., received the national award for organizing the best One-Design Regatta, the Flying Scot 50th North American Championship. A record number of Flying Scots competed in three national competitions (the Women’s National Championship, the Junior National Championship and the North American Championship), making it a multi-fleet event. FBYC's careful planning led to an overwhelmingly successful regatta, which brought over 300 competitors. In preparation, the club built a concrete launch ramp, upgraded the club’s signal boat equipment, designed a 20-page color welcome brochure, solicited over 19 sponsors, and much more. More than 80 volunteers worked cheerfully and with great pride.
The award was presented to FBYC's representatives, Noel Clinard and Ric Bauer by Jim Capron, President of US Sailing.
