The conditions could not have been better last weekend for this event sponsored by the Edgartown Yacht Club on Martha’s Vineyard! The winds were consistently 22 – 28 knots for the buoy races and the actual RTI race on Saturday. The Alerions were in good company: Swans, Sabres, J122s, J120s, and Little Harbor to name a few. There were also two Navy 44′s present that were built by the same craftsman that build Alerions. The IRC division attracted a few TP52s and the impressive “Rambler”, a Reichel Pugh 90′.
As always the Alerions did well! ”Iniki” an Alerion Express 38 won its double-handed division while another 38 took second in the PHRF non-spinnaker division. Full results here.
