Houston Yacht Club Leukemia Regatta

Five J/105s competed in Houston Yacht Club’s annual Leukemia Cup Regatta. The hot Texas sun and high temperatures created 12-16 knot breezes that made for some exciting and extremely close racing. Five points separated the leaders from the followers after three five-leg races. It was clearly anyone’s regatta. The last two races on Sunday in similar conditions saw Mark Young’s Killer Rabbit finish 6 feet ahead of Bee Bednar’s Stinger to take first place honors. Mark Smith and Marion V finished in third place.
