Certainly we are all going through tough times now, and we all regret not being together in a few weeks as intended for the 2020 Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race. […]
While here at NOSA we are mourning the loss of our 2020 edition of the Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race, we are also encouraged and inspired to keep our interest and passion in ocean sailing so that when the situation permits we may once return to the sea and enjoy this great sport.
In light of the Corvid 19 virus, the Newport Ocean Racing Association’s Board of Directors unanimously voted to reschedule the 73rd annual Newport to Ensenada Yacht International Race until April 23, 2021.
Like Rod Woods, Dan Rossen is also a seasoned offshore sailor who has entered this year’s 73rd Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race as a double-handed entry. And with his perennial racing partner Richard Whitley he is also a past class winner on their B-32 Problem Child. In fact, Dan claims they have won the DH trophy on the N2E some 7 times, more than half the number of times he has also sailed this race in full-crew mode.
Rod Woods has just a little experience with racing offshore: he reckons on average he raced his Olson 30 over 38 weekends a year for many years, and he has completed some 33 Newport to Ensenada races. So at age 79 he’s ready to throttle back just a little yet still be part of the race action in this year’s 73rd annual NOSA event.
Mark your calendars for Monday, April 27th and extend your slip reservations because Club Náutico Baja of Ensenada has kindly extended an open invitation to all N2E participants for a USA vs MEX fun race around the Bahia with a fiesta and awards to follow in downtown Ensenada sponsored by Doble C Craft Brewery.
