American YC Fall Series weekend one: Eclipse and Loulou lead

The American Yacht Club Fall Series got off to a great start with 15 boats and solid east winds to kick off Fleet 6’s largest fall event. Day one had the breeze pushing 20 with a steep chop. Loulou took the day but not without a battle from Damian Emery’s Eclipse which prevailed in very shifty conditions on day two to take the weekend lead by 1 point. This is after six races, and with another weekend to go it should be a good battle at the top. Not far back are Revelation, Skipperdee and Conundrum.
