St. Thomas Aquinas will be competing this weekend in the Atlantic Coast Championships at Shrewsbury Sailing & Yacht Club. Here's the NOR it includes a map of the venue. Of importance: if the air temp is below 45 degrees the RC may require wet suits and dry suits - make sure you bring something that fulfills this requirement (If you don't have a skiff-suit, wetsuit or drysuit, borrow form teammates or get a used wetsuit from Sailorman).
I coached the MASSA qualifier for ACC's at this same venue last year, here's the debrief from that event. As you can probably surmise from the map, it will be shifty!
The Forecast
The regatta will be in FJ's - A and B division will not be on the water at the same time. Read notes on FJ's here.
Mac Agnesse will be coaching; he will be at the STA practice on Thursday. Please remember to pack all your required equipment (Pennies! USCGapprovedPFD's!) and good luck to our sailors at this competitive Intersectional (Teams from NEISSA and MASSA had to qualify) event!
