Going thru pictures recently, I found that I had not uploaded all the pictures taken from the 7/28/15 Tuesday night racing. Those pictures have been added to the 7/28/15 gallery of photos. Many are VERY similar to ones already posted, but others are new posts of pictures that have been straightened (horizon line) and color corrected.

Final Results for 2015 Sailing Series All Posted
The Final Results of the Spring Portsmouth, Summer A Portsmouth and Summer B Portsmouth series racing is now posted on the Results page.
Based on the number of sailors in the “core fleets” (sailors that sailed at least 60% of the actual races raced in the series) for each fleet, and going at LEAST 50% deep into a core fleet, year end trophies will be awarded as follows:
Spring Portsmouth Fleet: 10 Races raced, 10 races x 60% = 6 races (sailors who raced at least 6 races in the Spring series are part of the “core fleet”), 19 Sailors in core fleet, 19 sailors x 50% = trophies awarded to 10th place.
Summer Portsmouth B Fleet: 17 Races raced, 17 races x 60% = 10 races (sailors who raced at least 10 races in the Summer series are part of the “core fleet”), 8 Sailors in core fleet, 8 sailors x 50% = trophies awarded to 4th place.
Summer Portsmouth A Fleet: 17 Races raced, 17 races x 60% = 10 races (sailors who raced at least 10 races in the Summer series are part of the “core fleet”), 12 Sailors in core fleet, 12 sailors x 50% = trophies awarded to 6th place.
Awards for the Most Improved New and Seasoned Skipper will be awarded at the year end banquet on Saturday, October 3, 2015.
Sailors that didn’t qualify for one of the above trophies are eligible for a participation brass plate to add to their trophy base, if they sailed at least 50% of the actual races for the ENTIRE YEAR. The cost of the brass plate is $5.00. If you are eligible for the participation brass plate and don’t yet have a trophy base, you will be provided with one free of charge.
All fleet members that are eligible for one (or more trophies) or a participation plate, will be contacted via email by Andy Lenczycki during the week of September 21, 2015 to get any specific information required for your individual brass plate. If I haven’t gotten a response back by Friday, September 25, you may not get a plate (or it may not display the full/correct data).
Summer Series Week 10 (9/8/15)
This is our last scheduled week of racing for the year! My apologies for this late communication – hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and first weekend of college football – I know I sure did! Tonight’s weather is pretty iffy, with a 60% chance of thunderstorms and SSW winds at 9 mph at 6 pm – so stay tuned. It might turn out to be nice if there’s a break in the wave of storms. If we are cancelled, we still will gather at Brewster’s, so plan to come out anyway – I will call ahead to reserve “our spot” for us.
Summer Series Week 9 (9/1/15)
Summer’s back! Tuesday looks like the summer days of old, with hot temps at 86 degrees and SW Winds, at 7 mph, decreasing to 4 mph. We still meet at Brewster’s and will gather in the dining room to the left as you walk into the restaurant.
Summer Series Week 8 (8/25/15)
The summer series (and 2015 racing) is winding down, with tomorrow being Week 8 of 10. We’re looking at cool temps, with highs around 66 degrees F, cloudy skies and WNW winds at 10-15 mph. At Brewster’s following sailing, we meet in the dining room, as there is expected to be others in the room off to the side. Remember to save the date of our year end party – Saturday October 3rd – we are in the process of narrowing down a few choices for our end of year dinner celebration and will get that info out to all of you as soon as we know more.
Results of the protest that was heard last week will also be discussed at Brewster’s, so plan on attending.
Summer Series Week 7 (8/18/15)
Tomorrows’ forecast is for 5 to 10 mph winds out of the SSW and a 50% – 80% chance of storms. We have the room reserved at Brewster’s, so if we are cancelled, we can go there early. For many who have had numerous rules/right of way questions, this would be the perfect time to ask them, so plan to come out regardless of the weather situation. Who knows, it may just clear up!
1995 Series Results Now Available
For those of you (Rick Klinkers) anxiously awaiting them, the 1995 Spring and Summer series results have been posted on the Series Results page.
Week 7 Spring Series (6/16/15)
Three major items on the agenda for this week’s e-mail:
- You all should have received another invite for the committee boat sign-up page. We have been fortunate to have Dave D, Steve C. and Jeff D. provide a pontoon boat for the Spring Series, thanks guys! However, we only have a single 2 week slot signed up for summer, and that’s by Dave S. in August (thanks Dave!). WE NEED BOATS FOR JULY, or we will not be able to start the summer series! You can forward your invite to anyone else you may think is interested – including non-fleet members who live on the lake.
- After sailing results this week is at the Taproom at the Airway Fun Center at 5626 Portage Rd. Portage, MI (see map below for trailer parking areas). Next week and July 7th we go back to Brewster’s. I think everyone enjoyed Brewster’s last week – I really appreciated their huge menu selection! We will try to secure more Tuesday’s at Brewster’s if everyone likes it, but there is another group who has the room on alternate weeks, and we may need an alternate site. The parking situation at Latitude 42 remains an issue, since even at 8 :45 pm on a Tuesday night, the parking lot is packed!
- 2015 ALCA Pontoon Boat Party: We have a volunteer host location for the post float dinner, for July 18th or July 19th. (Thanks Jim and Kathy Kuk!). During announcements this Tuesday, we will vote on these dates. If anyone cannot attend either the July 18th or 19th (but would if it were on a different date) please let us know!
