The Columbia River Gorge in Oregon delivered BIG for the 2017 Weta Nationals, with sustained winds between 22-30 knots over 3 days of glorious racing. Competitors came from Florida, North Carolina, Cali, and Washington for fun, camaraderie, and to prove who could best handle the Gorge beast.

The breeze was mild, but still it made an impression to see Dave Bernsten walk away from the tiller of his 14-foot trimaran, step to the bow, fiddle with an adjustment, then mosey back aft and resume his duties at the helm.

This trimaran blew the judge away with it's fun factor. A feature from our January/February 2010 issue

Since everyone else is getting ready or already heading to the Gorge for the Weta Nationals, I thought I’d write up the Santa Cruz Weta Kickoff (okay, Hobie Kickoff, but we were a sizable fleet) which took place last weekend.

Last weekend 6 Wetas convened on Huntington Lake, 7000 feet up on the western side of the Sierras, outside of Fresno, California. We had a great weekend of racing as part of the Fresno Yacht Club's Commodore's Open Classic regatta.

Really tough day - hammer gusts to 35 MPH, full 180 degree wind shifts in a split second. Great practice, however, and only makes anything less a walk in the park. . . By Tom Kirkman

It is my opinion that the biggest mistake people make when double-handing a Weta when downwind reaching, is having one person steer the boat while the other sheets the screecher.

15,000 acres of lake practically to ourselves It was cold, it was wet, it was FUN!
