RCYC/NSC Team “Sula Sula” 2016 Lake Ontario 200 Line Honours On July 16th onwards, the Lake Ontario 300 Challenge offshore race was held out of Port Credit Yacht Club. The world’s longest annual freshwater race, 106 boats from clubs around the lake competed on either the Scotch Bonnet (200 Nm) or Main Duck (300 Nm) Courses in various divisions. Three NSC members Nat Baddour, Doug Gibson, and Ross Ernst joined RCYC’s Carey Crawford-Brown (Skipper/Owner) and Chloe Gifford (Youth) on a C&C 115 “Sula Sula” as a PHRF-NFS (JAM) class boat on the Scotch Bonnet Course (SBC). With everything from no winds to severe storm winds with some of the toughest Lake Ontario waves, and amazing moonlight sailing, the 2016 LO300 Challenge proved to be one of the classics in its history. One third of the boats chose or were forced to retire before finishing. (Read the 2016 Challenge Report). Marek 1994 C270 “Legato” Ottawa, ON
