Bradley Cup - Historical Winners

This cup was donated by Walker Johnson to honor Rod and Jodie Nystul who served as Commodore and Secretary / Treasurer from 1988 to 1999. During their joint management of the Club, it grew from an average of 4-8 boats sailing each Sunday to 14-18 boats each Sunday. They accomplished this with their enthusiasm for sailing and their willingness to help any and all newcomers to learn to race. Many current members attribute their membership to the “warm welcome” atmosphere created by the Nystuls. In addition, it was Rod and Skip Cartland who designed and implemented our unique Starting System that gives all sailors a chance to win. The RoJo cup race was started in 2000 and Rod was its first winner.

TIM WALSH MEMORIAL RACE

Tim Walsh was a long time member of the LLYC serving as Commodore for the years 1990 and 91. He got into sailing in the early 90's and joined the club. In the late 90's he introduced his son Scott to sailing. Scott was a quick study and soon became a contenter. Scott won both the LLYC and LLSC seriers in 2005. By then Tim and Mo were out on the pontoon boat cheering Scott on and serving as rescue boat for those that capsized. Tim was a great asset to both Clubs and is being honored with this traveling Trophy. Scott won the trophy in the first year.
 

This granite obelisk is given to the winner of the last race of the season. The Cup began in 2005 to honor Skip Cartland  and his 30 plus years of leadership and support of the Club. Skip knew the Rules. He was our Rules guru from the time he came on the lake in 1972. The rest of us simply did what he said as opposed to learning all the rules which seemed an impossible task. Each year Skip would go over the rules at the spring meeting and most of us still didn’t understand most of it. But he was always there to clarify a dispute and little by little we finally got it. Skip also served as First Commodore of the Club beginning in 1974. Prior to 1974 the Club was less formally organized.
