2023-2024 Frostbite Series Recap

We enjoyed another mild winter and although we lost 1 ⁄ 4 of our sixteen day schedule to poor conditions (no wind / too much)... the series was still a success!

81 sailors (40 ILCA 6 and 41 ILCA 7) registered for Series 1, which started on November 13 and concluded with a make-up day on January 27. Series 2 officially continued with 63 sailors, from February 3 through March 24. A big thank you to Luke Shingledecker for scoring the races and to all the volunteers that stepped up to serve on RC, in some cases more than twice… LeAnn Myhre and Jim Lane, thank you for volunteering an extra day!

Congratulations to all who sailed the entire winter (review daily results here) and special shout out to our 2023-24 Frostbite Champions!
