New York State Regatta

Trevor, Philippe (myself) and Rachel relaxing after the last heat

This past Saturday (May 18th 2013)was a great day of sailing. Thanks to Captain Linzee's skillful negotiations, we were able to form a composite team with Pierson and East Hampton high school. The morning sailing proved to be quite a challenge, as the weather was fickle and the wind was all over the place. At one point, Trevor and myself experienced a 180 degree wind shift in a matter of 20 seconds!

After a long day of sailing, the ThreeVillage/Pierson/E.Hampton composite team placed a respectable 9th overall out of 16 teams. Can't wait for next season!

Port Jefferson Maritime Festival

What perfect weather ! Sunshine and a warm Spring breeze brought thousands of spectators to the annual Port Jefferson Maritime Festival. Of course we took this as a great opportunity to advertise and promote our Three Village Sailing Team. Myself, my brother Victor, Trevor Munch (who took the great photos) and several other members of our growing sailing club were present to answer questions, show people our cool 420 sailboats and provide on the water sailing demos.

As proactive as it was it made us realize that alhttp://www.aeroyacht.com/contact-us/ot of work needs to be done to get the right information to the right people. Hey, its a start !

Oyster bay regatta : WFC

Today was one of these days where wind and current were opposed. Conditions in Oyster Bay were very difficult and me and my partner Trevor had a hard time coordinating windshifts. Gusty winds, sunny weather and great quality 420's made it all worth it. Thank god we had dry-suits as our hands were getting soaked...


The 3Vilage Sailing Team consisted of:

VictorTarjan (skipper, myself ;-)
Rachel Rothstein (crew)


Trevor Munch (skipper)
Silvia Cohn (crew)
