The Spirit of Monhegan Award

This award is presented to a volunteer who contributed time and energy in special ways that contributed to the success of the regatta.  Race Officer Tim Tolford presented the award to Skip Yale.  Among other tasks, Skip ferried relief crews out and back from the vessel stationed at the finish line at the outer mouth of Hussey Sound.
