CMWA 2015 Championships in Ottawa, July 31 to August 3

The Britannia Yacht Club was the host this year and I was the organizer of the event.

Friday night was the welcome reception and registration at the club. Most participants were able to come by and enjoy the evening at BYC.

Saturday was windy enough to have 4 races. Sunday morning was very calm but the wind picked up enough after lunch that we did one race plus a long distance race. Monday was cloudy but the rain stayed away and we were able to run 2 more races. All in all, a great weekend on Lake DeschĂȘnes!

For my part, I only finished 2 of the 4 races I started because the wind was too strong. Up to that point, I had windsurfed only once this summer because of a bad back so I could handle it only in light wind.
