Southern Soiland Cup Wrap-up

On November 7-8, 2009, the St. Francis Yacht Club Team Racing Team traveled to New Orleans, Louisiana and the Southern Yacht Club for the 2009 Southern Soiland Cup. The annual event is a 3 on 3 team race in Flying Scots sailed right out in front of the Southern Yacht Club on Lake Ponchartrain. Sailing for St. Francis Yacht Club were Holt Condon, Logan Jager, Natasha Baker, Edward Conrad, Rolf Kaiser, Avery Patton, Harrison Turner, Matt Gregory, and Cindy Keppel.

St. Francis Yacht Club finished in 5th place and won the Silver division in this highly competitive event. Unfortunately, the regatta ran out of time before St. Francis could advance to the Final Four. The event was won by the host, Southern Yacht Club.
Results and information can be found here.

Check out the write up from the Southern Soiland Cup at Southern Yacht Club written by St. Francis Yacht Club member Kimball Livingston.

A special thanks to the Conrad family for hosting some of our sailors and to the Southern Yacht Club for putting on a fantastic event in a beautiful new clubhouse.

Until next regatta,

St. Francis Team Racing
