09 August 2010: ECLIPSE blasts through. Damian Emery's ECLIPSE blew away the competition in both the West Passage Regatta and the Narragansett Bay Championship series. Damian got the best of ten other J/105s in the inaugural WPR with 12 points in the eight regatta series. The weather cooperated with moderate (12-16 knot) breezes from the S and SW which allowed eight races to be sailed in two days. The second and third place boats for the WPR were TONTO (Fred Darlington, 18 points), and POWER PLAY (Bruce Stone and Scott DeWeese, 24 points). For the three regatta Narragansett Bay Championship, ECLIPSE had .913 to KINCSEM's (Joerg Esdorn/Duncan Hennes) .790 and POWER PLAY's .746. There were 24 total participants in this series.
