The RC Laser North American Championship ventured out of the continental United States for the first time. One sailor came from Sweden and one arrived by sailboat. 8 sailors from the U.S. The rest were local Abaco sailors. The sailors visited Hope Town, Man-O-War, and Guana Cay. Racing started at 10:00 am sharp with Tim Sands running the show. It was a beautiful sunny day with NW winds and everyone sailing B-rigs. We scored 6 races and split the fleets into gold and silver during lunch. Jim Kaighin led the gold fleet by one point over Dave Ramos and he was one point ahead of Dwayne Wallas. The points were 6, 7 and 8 respectively. The odd-even format with split fleets kept the scoring close after 6 races and one drop.
