Doyle Boston News:

2009 has been a very successful so far!

Much of our success here at Doyle Boston Sails is due to our great customers and the success that you all have on the water! 2009 has been a great success and it is only half way finished. We continue to work very hard to ensure that your success keeps going for the rest of the season.

Here is what I hope is just a partial list of results that DBS has been a part of.

St. Pete NOOD.

Congrats to Dave Flechsig and his crew on board Rooster Tail for besting Spike and the Frequent Flyer crew in the S2 7.9 fleet. With his win Dave and crew are now heading to the Caribbean as they won the overall boat of the week award!  Dave had just taken delivery of a new D4 mainsail and Genoa for the event.

Ultimate 20. Jim Pearson with a string of firsts dominated this small but tough class at this years NOOD regatta. Jim had Brad on board to help get himself and AJ up to speed for the rest of the season.

Viper 640. This is an up and coming fleet and St. Pete was our first attempt in the class. Dan Cheresh and Tac borrowed a boat for the event. We built our first set of Viper sails and had a decent showing of 6^th.

Ultimate 20 Midwinter’s.

The annual trip to Lake Norman was an eventful one. We did not get 7 miles from Sarnia before we had blown 2 tires on Honour! So that ended the trip for the boat. A few frantic phone calls to the fleet down there secured us another ride. Thanks to Allison Young lending Tac and crew her boat. The regatta continued to be a challenge as we only got 1 race in over two days. Don Corey won that race, Bob McGrath was second and Brad sailing on another borrowed boat was 3^rd.

Charleston Race Week.

PHRF D was won by Tom Freeman and his crew onboard the Tripp 26 Slapshot. Tom is a long time customer and we just delivered a new #1 Genoa for Tom in time for this event.

In the Viper 640 fleet Brad chartered a boat for this event and we finished a new set of sails for this event. This was our second set of sails, some small changes from the sails that we did for St. Pete. Brad and crew ended the regatta in 3^rd place and turning a lot of heads in process. Tac was down there as well in our RIB helping to coach the fleet and also looking at sail shapes and set ups from the other top teams. On Saturday night Tac was part of a fleet wide debrief that the class hosts at each event.  It is a great way to help the fleet even out from top to bottom.

Brad is very excited to announce that he and Lee Shuckerow have purchased a Viper and are now awaiting the arrival of the new boat. Hull #125 will be hitting the regatta circuit starting at CORK! Look for many more great results and coverage from this great fleet.

S2 7.9 Class was won by Doug Frye and the crew of Robyn. Dr. Itch Paul LaTour was second.
