10 Penguins took to the water on Nov 8th to sail the inaugural

Trippes Creek Penguin Frostbite Regatta”  TCPFR 

Conditions were chilly a 40-44 degrees with a south breeze of 5-17 kts.  

5 Races were completed with the infamous crew race being Race 3.  

 

The event also was the Region 3 championships for 2014.  

After the dust settled the results were 1st Jonathan and Annie Bartlett 

                                                             2nd Mike and Rachel Hecky

                                                             3rd Scott Williamson sailing Solo.  

 

The winner of the crew race this year is Brittany Beigel.  Crewing for Brittany

and he seems to have crewed for a lot of past winners of this race was father Reid. 

 

The annual "Puckup" award was given out once again.   Ebby duPont and Sandy McAllister 

were close in points for getting wet.  But Ebby wins this year since he also dunked his crew 

Susie Hopkins.    

 

 

A new perpetual was also awarded this year. Anne-Lise Fink presented a MORC trophy her husband Walter won back in the 60's on Long Island Sound.   The perpetual will be awarded along with the ICPFR perpetual that Corckoran family to the winning boat of the TCPFR.  

 

Thank you Anne-Lise for your contribution, the class will proudly honor Walters memory. 

 

 

This regatta just like it's predecessors UMPFR and ICPFR are the life blood of our class.  

Thanks to the generosity of Dr Jim Thompson and his daughter Holly. The new location is spectacular. It always seems like the whos who of Talbot county come out and create an atmosphere unlike any other regatta in the state.  

 

We need more boats for next year’s TCPFR.  The venue is beautiful, the hospitality is the best and the Bloody Mary's are second to none!   Please come join us for next year!
