On March 16^th Island Yacht Club hosted their annual Sadie Hawkins Day race in the Oakland estuary.

This is a race that requires that the skipper be a woman, in keeping with IYC’s sponsorship of the

Women’ Sailing Seminar and the annual Jack and Jill race in the fall—a double-handed estuary

race also requiring a woman skipper.

The weather Gods cooperated nicely by providing a perfect blue sky, reasonable temps

and 15 to 20 kts of breeze in the estuary for an afternoon of around the buoys.

Seven boats participated in two classes with the results below:

1^st	Eyrie	Hawkfarm	Sylvia Seaberg
2^nd	Dominatrix	Santana 22	Heidi Schmidt
3^rd	Georgia	Black Soo 40	Pam Krawiec
