Over the weekend of August 11 & 12 the Junior Sailing Association of Long Island Sound (JSA of LIS) Optimist Championship was hosted by the Sea Cliff Yacht Club, Sea Cliff, NY. 151 sailors entered the Optimist season championship of Western Long Island Sound clubs but the wind gods did not cooperate. The sailors and the Race Committee exhibited tremendous patience hoping for better conditions but in the end could only squeeze in two (2) races over the two (2) days in light and variable conditions.
Evan Read from Northport Bay SA was the winner of the Leo Cardillo Trophy and first in Red Fleet with a score of 1-2 followed by recent Optimist New England's champion Declan Whitmyer from Noroton YC who had a 4-1. Laura Wefer from host Sea Cliff YC was third and top girl with a 4-4. Top Blue fleeter was Megan Grapengeter-Rudnick from Noroton YC in 6th and first in White Fleet was Sophia Gould from Stamford YC.
