June 27-28, 2009
Newport, RI
In only two weekends, the RI Team Racing Association will put on the 6th
running of the annual 2v2 “Random Pairs” team race regatta. Run out of
SailNewport, we’ll sail in the team race amphitheater that is Mackerel Cove
in Jamestown, RI. Saturday will feature 2v2 racing, whereby the race
committee will create new and different teams and opponents with each race.
Ideally you will sail with and against every other boat in the event. The
2v2 style races are simple but fast-paced and competitive through the finish
line. Sunday will feature team racing for the first time (opposed to fleet
racing) and teams for it will be created based on Saturday’s results.
Registration is online and open on www.ritra.org. Register now as the
regatta is limited to 24 entrants and is first come, first serve! The event
is sailed in BYO V15s, however charter boats are available for the weekend
and can be reserved online on the same website.
See you out there!
