First Carling Trophy Win for Dwight and Pat
Aplevich
Light, fluky winds and glorious
sunshine greeted the racers
on both Saturday and Sunday of the 2007 Warm Water hosted by the
Conestoga SC northwest of Kitchener-Waterloo. Six Wayfarers and
eight Lasers from the Fanshawe
Yacht Club in London, the
Toronto
Sailing and Canoe Club and Conestoga took part on Saturday. Only
Wayfarers
sailed on Sunday after waiting until noon
for the wind to come up. Pat and Dwight Aplevich took first place and
the Carling Trophy, followed by Mike Codd with Kirk Iredale. Al Nichols
and crew,
Ken
Nethercott, placed 3rd. There was quite a
shake-up in the placement order as there were 3 winners of the Most Improved flags. All
beating their seed by one place were Teams Codd and Nichols, as well as
Leo and Jo Van Kampen.

spinnaker to
fill in very light wind.
