Summary of Saturday's Racing

Both the Stage 1 Round Robin and the Stage 3 Knock Out Series were completed on Saturday.  9th thru 12th final positions were set from this stage.  The remaining 8 moved on to Stage 3 (Stage 2 having been cancelled).

Stage 3 consisted of a series of races between 1st and 8th place, 2nd and 7th place, and so on.  First team in each pairing to score 2 points wins that round and moves on to Stage 4.  In the end, the four losers are scored 5th thru 8th overall based on their rankings in the Stage 1 Round Robin.

Sunday starts with the Stage 4 - Semi Finals.  Regatta leader Taylor Canfield was given the choice of which team to race against - he chose Brian Angel, who was ranked 3rd overall after Stage 3.  Taylor is probably betting that Brian Angel, though currently higher ranked in this regatta, will be easier to defeat than 4th ranked Dave Perry, who has a very deep match racing resume.  That leaves 2nd ranked Chris Nesbitt racing against 4th ranked Dave Perry.

The Semi Finals are a best of 5 series.  When that is concluded, the top two teams move on to the best of 5 Finals and 3rd and 4th move on to the best of 3 Petit Finals.
