DAM RACE 2015

"THE BEST "DAM" RACE IN WISCONSIN!

"Best Race by a DAM sight!"
                    quote by Don Jensen

SEPTEMBER 6, 2015

What a great day for the Dam Race 2015. The temperature held around 88° and the winds were out of the SSW averaging 14mph with gusts up to 23 mph. The rain held off until 6:30.

This year a total of 15 boats participated in the race: seven catamarans, one center board and seven cruisers. 
52 sailors, family members and friends attended the dinner and awards ceremony.  

A highlight this year was the return of Don Jenson, winner of the 1985 cruiser class, who traveled up from Florida.

Winners by class were:

Catamarans

1st - Jim Wanta & Barry Winters
2nd - Mike and Janet Alekna
3rd - Martin and Tammie Alekna

Centerboard

1st - Don Jansen & Jim McManus

Cruisers

1st - Jeff Reabe & family
2nd - Clyde Fuhrmeister & Ron Callan
3rd - Dave Ewanowski, family & friends

A great thanks goes out to all who helped plan and manage this year’s successful Corn Roast and Dam Race weekend.

Celebrating our 36th year
