Speed Tips Day with Jud Smith
Reminder to mark your calendar for Saturday, August 2nd. Jud Smith has graciously agreed to donate some of his time to help the Fleet sail faster and race better.
August 2nd is an MRA day, and Jud will join us in a powerboat on the race course. He will be offering suggestions to fleet members during the day, both during races and between races. In addition, he will be taking pictures on the water and will be going over the pictures at a de-brief immediately after racing in the Harbor Room at the Corinthian Yacht Club. Please note that due to scheduling constraints, we need to return the room by 5:45PM.
This is a great opportunity to learn from one of the best sailors in the world and with the Rhodes 19 national championships just over one month away it is good timing. Jud is a Rhodes national champion, an Etchells world champion, a Rolex Yachtsman of the Year and most recently an inductee in to the Marblehead Yacht Racing Hall of Fame. He also has a practical, straightforward and helpful approach to explaining the intricacies of sailing, not to mention deep local knowledge in Marblehead.
This is a terrific opportunity to improve your boat speed. We hope to get a lot of boats out on August 2nd!
