It didn\u2019t turn out that way as New Wave found itself owning the pin end of the line, typically a start that is on the Gordon Gekko end of the risk-reward ratio.<\/p><p>\u201cThat\u2019s where we ended up,\u201d says Liebel. \u201cWe weren\u2019t planning on it, but the pin end ended up being open. We were hoping we could get out. [After the start] we tacked to cross, and I bet there were probably five or six boats that we were crossing by five to 10 feet. If we couldn\u2019t get across any one of those, that last race would have ended a little differently.\u201d<\/p><p>Instead, however, Liebel and his team successfully crossed the fleet and won the final race and the National Championship, which was part of the 13th edition of Race Week at Newport presented by Rolex.<\/p><p>\u201cThis is a huge win, we\u2019re very, very proud of this,\u201d says Liebel. \u201cI\u2019m very happy for the team. Any national championship is a nice one to have, heck yeah.\u201d<\/p><p>The New York Yacht Club\u2019s Race Week at Newport presented by Rolex was first run in 1998, and takes place this year from July 13 to 16 out of the New York Yacht Club Harbour Court, in Newport. R.I. The biennial regatta, run at the apex of the summer sailing season, has established itself as one of the premier summer race weeks in the Northeast thanks to the attractive combination of great racing conditions off Newport and the superlative shoreside hospitality at the Club\u2019s waterfront Clubhouse overlooking Newport Harbor. Partners for the 2022 edition of Race Week at Newport include presenting sponsor Rolex and regatta sponsors Hammetts Hotel, Safe Harbor Marinas and Helly Hansen.<\/p><p>While New Wave opened and closed the 11-race series with race wins, it was the furthest thing from a wire-to-wire win. It wasn\u2019t until the first race on the final day, the ninth of the series, that the Florida-based team moved into the overall lead.<\/p><p>\u201cAll the teams had at least one or two bad races,\u201d says Liebel. \u201cIt\u2019s just minimizing the bad races. Just sail clean and sail smart and put together as many top-fives as you can while avoiding the 15s and 20s.\u201d<\/p><p>Liebel and his crew were remarkable in that way, recording all top-10 finishes, with one exception, a 20th in the seventh race.<\/p><p>\u201cThe team did a great job,\u201d he says. \u201cAs the week went on, we got better and better and faster and faster and really felt comfortable.\u201d<\/p><p>The next edition of Race Week at Newport will take place July 17 to 20, 2024. &#8212; Stuart Streuli, NYYC Director of Communications<\/p><p>Race Week at Newport presented by Rolex<br \/>New York Yacht Club Harbour Court<br \/>July 13 to 16, 2022<\/p><p>Final Top Five Results<br \/>Place, Yacht Name, Type, Owner\/Skipper, Hometown, Results, Total Points<\/p><p>IC37 (One Design &#8211; 24 Boats)<\/p><p>1.
