American Yacht Club, Rye, New York continued its support of High Performance dinghy racing by hosting the 2011 International 505 Class North American Championship this past weekend immediately after the HPDO (Oct 12-16).
The AYC RC team rattled off 4 races per day on the first two days and 2 good races in a building south westerly on the last day before sending the fleet in as conditions worsened.
Tyler Moore and Geoff Ewenson of Hampton Yacht Club crushed the 27 boat fleet with 6 wins and only a drop of 4 from the 10 races sailed. Top Worlds sailor Mike Holt, Santa Cruz YC, and crew Jesse Falsone, SSA, was bridesmaid again, closely followed by previous World Champion Ethan Bixby and crew Chris Brady, St. Petersburg YC, in 3rd place
Day 3 was blown out but a pair of young guns rigged their 505 with 420 sails and went for a quick blast.

Tyskarna har startat test av ett nytt segelplan till 505
The German 505 Class Association has started a test of a new sailplan after a long preparation. This week (9/9) the first test took place in Hamburg. It was expected a WOW experience. But of course, to be gradually increased after several small changes.
It is planned to incorporate the experiences and comments from all test sailors in the sail design. The sails will be tested after the European Championships on Lake Garda then a retest at the International German Championship in Starnberg.
The sails can be borrowed at any time and in any region. Contact: Andreas Jungclaus.
