Second Annual Blue & Gold Regatta

Our Second Annual Blue and Gold Regatta, formerly known more as the Alumni Regatta, took place on Saturday, September 26th, 2009, at the Corinthian Yacht Club of Philadelphia. Five alumni came to the regatta on Saturday morning, and had a great time out on the water. We had good conditions (winds about 8 knots on average, gusting to 12 knots), and started the regatta with fleet racing. After lunch, we reset the course to allow for fleet races and some vigorous, but still friendly team racing. Defending champion, Skipper Stephen Gutwein-Guenther (‘08) and his crew Jackie O’Connor (‘07) won the fleet racing portion of the regatta and were presented with the perpetual alumni regatta trophy, a “Blue & Gold Regatta Champ” T-shirt, and the coveted seersucker jacket. The Corinthian Yacht Club of Philadelphia provided us with a delicious barbecue dinner, and Regatta Chairman, Tyler Drown handed out special T-shirts to the regatta participants that were each uniquely hand stenciled and painted by our very artistic teammates. The B&G Regatta welcomed not only our former Drexel Sailors, but also our newest team members who helped out in the committee boat.
