Opti - DN Junior North Americans
December 8th, 2007 -
The long-anticipated Junior event was originally planned to take place in
Minnesota, but mother nature hurled a snow storm through most of the region.
Oddly enough right here in our area, Wamplers Lake, in the Irish Hills of
South-East Michigan was the best ice around.
There was plenty of
room for the Opti-Course, and a little room for the big DN's to cruise around as
well.
The Optis had 12
boats total?? and sailed 7 races??? Racing was called of
Sunday due to freezing rain. Awards were given out Sunday morning at the
hotel. **This Article is not finished at this time, but enjoy the
