2024 Egyptian Cup Regatta Results by Bill Vogler, FS 6290

The Egyptian Cup Regatta was held June 15-16 at Carlyle Lake in Southern Illinois (site of the ’25 NAC’s) and results are now posted.  In a regatta that saw no wind or racing on Saturday the 15th saw good winds on Sunday (8-13 mph) the 16th resulting in 2 hotly contested races for the 22 registered Scots.  The conditions were a bit challenging due to particularly hot temperatures for the time of year (low 90’s).  The victors were PJ Buhler and Kendall Kunz in boat 5954 with two victories.  Second went to Carlyle locals Tobi (skipper) and Dan Moriarity in a club boat with second and third place finishes.  One of the infamous Kunz brothers (Kevin), sailing with David Ames, garnered a 6th and a 2nd for a third overall place finish.  Check out the remainder of the place finishes on the Egyptian Cup Regatta website which can be found via the FSSA past events site.  Participants in the photo L-R with tote bag trophies are as follows:
