2001 Results
July 24 12:28 EDT Two
protests with significant effects on the standings have been decided.
Decision the first to finish mono hull has been disqualified for a pre start collision.
This gives the PHRF Class A and Overall PHRF win to Lightning owned by Bob
Seger.
In PHRF F the Level 35 Class Night Train has been penalized 45 minutes for a
safety violation. Their particular violation was not having the butt end
of their mast secured. ORC special regulation 3.09 reads: "Mast step. The
heel of a keel stepped mast shall be securely fastened to the mast step
or adjoining structure."
This dropped them to 6th place and allowed Major Detail into 3rd place.
