Rochester Canoe Club

Well done Mike and Mary Ellen!

Phase 2 of our new stone revetment wall. Took over a year to navigate the permit process through DEC, Army Corps and the Town of Irondequoit. 30 tons of stone individually placed along 40 feet of our shorline. Huge thanks to Alex Wirth and Mark Weider who were instrumental getting this project to where we could actually start construction. More to do but we are well on our way to complete this in early spring.

First Race of 2020 Frostbiting . A wonderful Fall day on the Bay. Thanks Doug!!!!! https://gopro.com/v/aR46dQm3XONJQ

Final day of the Fall Sunfish Series. Shifting North East to South East winds on a glorious Fall day on Irondequoit Bay. Fall Frostbiting up next for these sailors!

The Don VanVechten Memorial Sunfish Regatta was held July 11th. 33 boats on the line in pretty good morning conditions for Irondequoit Bay. The Thermal filled in way earlier than expected and we managed to get 4 races in before heading to shore due to storm cells. After a brief wait they headed back out only to have the weather force the race committee to call the day Congratulations to Mike Ingham and Doug Kaukeinen who tied for points w/ MIke receiving the award as the overall winner. Super excited to see so many boats take part. Thanks to all the out of town sailors that made the trip. We greatly appreciated their participation

Had a friend sew up our burgee. Looks great. Next up is the Sunfish Class Flag for the regatta next weekend

We are certainly enjoying the exceptional competition in our Sunfish fleet

Chris Connelly and I were down to the club Sunday. Bruce visited us on his atv.and commented that the water was higher at this time than it is "normally" I know a few of us have been brainstorming to be offensive minded in keeping the water from disrupting our season. Stay tuned

J24 Worlds. Mike Ingham and crew doing great. RYC Travis Odenbach right behind. Joy Martin and the Sea Bag team doing well https://yachtscoring.com/event_results_cumulative.cfm

Another sailing season wrapping up... Thanks to everyone who helped at Boats-In Day. Tomorrow we start Sunfish Frostbite racing (temperature in the mid-60’s!). See you there!

Follow RCC sailor Mike Ingham Sailing as he vies for another title!

Great friends take 1st. Congratulations Dan, Sarah and Doug.

Looks like UFD caught a lot of folks off guard in the first race including our own Mike Fortner! Hope things go better today.
