DragonFlite 95 Race Points Results – May 9 ⛵

We are truly spoiled by the superb Southern California weather and the 9-acre lake in Irvine at Mason Park, where the Orange County Model Sailing Club has called home for over 40 years. Yesterday was a perfect example of why we love this sport—pleasant, spirited racing and great camaraderie.

THE HIGHLIGHTS:

Stephan Cohen was on fire, taking first in seven heats and breezing to an overall regatta win. Len Bose secured a solid second, replicating his recent performance at the Sacramento R8 Travel Trophy. (Is this a trend?) Mike Crider, our quietest skipper, sailed his way into third. Gene Elliot, aka "Dr. Nice Guy," took fourth. "Shoe" rounded out the top five—not too shabby for an 83-year-old!

THE NUMBERS:
📊 14 Skippers | 12 Heats

TOP 5 FINISHERS:

1. Stephan Cohen – 31 pts
2. Len Bose – 44 pts
3. Mike Crider – 55 pts
4. Gene Elliot – 63 pts
5. Bob Schumacher – 66 pts

Full scoresheet attached below. Note: Series throw-outs will be calculated at the end of the season for our annual awards.

Great sailing, everyone! See you at the next one. DF65 Points Race, Saturday, May 16.

The 50-in RC scale model of the 27-ft Skipjack "Coot" built from scaled plans of the original Schooner, is shown sailing in a gentle breeze at Mason Park, Irvine, CA. It was expertly built, circa mid-1990s, by Harry Bourgeois with Swede Johnson guidance and sails. It has new electronics including a ServoCity gearbox arm winch and rudder servo.

A club member wants to sell this extraordinary scratch built RC schooner by a master builder. It’s located in Southern California for pickup only. It has complete documentation. Sails beautifully. There is no price set yet, nor is it on Facebook marketplace, but if you’re interested with a serious offer, let me know.
