CAMBA News
Soling One Meter racing for the 2008 is complete. Ted Smith is the club champion this year. Bob Fritze and Peter Meixner tied for second. The full results are posted in the 2008 Season Race Series.

After a long and heroic battle with leukemia, Phil Tiberio passed away in late October.

Phil had been a member of CAMBA for many years. Phil was the inspiration for the weekly "Phil's Cadillac."

The sailors of CAMBA will miss Phil.

CAMBA will be back on the pond at The Crossing when the ice is gone – probably the last week of April.

Please contact us if you are interesting in sailing with us in 2009.

Ten Racing Rule Commandments:

1) Port keeps clear of starboard.

2) Windward keeps clear of leeward.

3) The boat astern keeps clear of the boat ahead.

4) A boat Tacking or Jibing keeps clear of one that is not.

5) Avoid collisions. Racing Rules are defensive to prevent collisions not offensive racing tactics.

6) If you gain right of way or change course, give the other boat time to keep clear.

7) The inside boat(s) at four boat lengths from the mark is entitled to room to round the mark.
8) A boat that is backing up or not racing keeps clear.

9) If you have violated a rule, take a penalty.

10) It is better to give way than to spend hours in a protest room.
