Bay Yacht Club

The 6th and last of the 2009 Texas J-24 Circuit Race Series was this last weekend Nov 21-22 2009, hosted by the Lake Canyon Yacht Club.

With 12 J-24’s from around the state competing, BYC members Doug Weakly and Tom Kane, along with Pedro Gianotti (UK Halsey) and Matt Heinsohn took 1st PLACE!

Over the two-day weekend, they raced 6 times, 3 each day. Doug’s team finished 2-5-1-1-1-4 (leaving a little room for improvement next year) but also showing the level of competition! It is interesting to note that Doug and Matt have been doing J-24 races together for over 10 years and Doug and Tom for a number of years too; but, this is the first time for a 1st Place Trophy in the Texas Circuit. A huge congratulations for this impressive win!

Corey Harding (MORF) on Happy Dance, took 2nd Place for the 2009 Series. Congratulations to Corey for his extraordinary year too.

Cheers,

Walt
