Here's your SpinSheet Racing Roundup for June 2-4
Wow—what a weekend for racing on the Chesapeake Bay! At the same time the Annapolis to Newport Race had its first start off Annapolis on Friday, June 2, competitors were already racing down at Southern Bay Race Week (SBRW) in Hampton. Then on Saturday, the Annapolis Leukemia Cup was contested off Annapolis. Here are the results and photos for all.

Here are some photos by Al Schreitmueller from Friday's start
Annapolis YC hosted its skippers’ welcome party at the Dock St. Clubhouse on Thursday night, so competitors enjoyed cocktails and their last great land meal before the first start on Friday morning; a second start for faster boats kicked off Saturday. Fifty-two boats entered.
According to the event website and the A2N Twitter feed, the modified Volvo Open 70 Warrior owned by Stephen Murray, Jr. (Southern YC) was the first to finish the 475-mile race from Annapolis to Newport at 03:19:36 and took the course record! Looks like Black Pearl is the next to finish.
Here’s the race tracker ...We will keep you posted about finishers.....Here are some photos by Dan Phelps from Saturday's start:

Southern Bay Race Week
This year, SpinSheet increased its presence at SBRW, one of the largest regattas on the Chesapeake with 100 entries. We were there on the race course and at the parties and can attest to the fact that Hampton YC’s claim to southern hospitality is absolutely spot on. If you’ve never been down to the Southern Bay for this event, heed the call of “Y’all come racing!” and sign up for the weekend after Memorial Day 2018. Here are the results:

We try our best but can’t always cover every regatta on the Bay. If you host a special regatta you think we should cover before or after the fact, please reach out to our editor. We will make every effort to provide coverage in the magazine and/or online. Thank you for reading SpinSheet!
P.S. America's cup coverage comes next---as always, CHESAPEAKE FIRST!
