2023 Nite National Results
Congratulations to father and son Dave and Kyle Navin for their one and two finishes at the Nite Nationals sailed on Lake Geneva February 4-5, 2023. (I’ve been waiting over 20 years to write that alliterative headline, “Navin Nabs Nite Nats – even better having to add the s to make it Navins -Ed.) 4LIYC Commodore Daniel Hearn took 4th in the Gold fleet, while Brett Hulsley took 7th in the Silver fleet.
The 2023 Wisconsin Stern Steering Association regatta has been postponed to February 18 and 19. The next update will be Sunday, February 12. Check back here at that time. The Northwest Ice Yacht Association regatta takes precedence.
