Due to the non appearance of the scheduled RO it was left to the ARO to do his best. However the task was not too onerous due to the help given by the other competitors. As one skipper commented “if everybody does a little bit, a lot gets done” Grateful thanks to all concerned.

A rather disappointing 7 IOMs and 2 Dragons. Probably because there was a conflicting Ranking race and it was the Bank Holiday weekend. The wind was, as forecast, 10 – 12 mph from around NNE. As is normal for a Northerly flow there were many fluctuations both in strength and direction which led to some interesting racing. At least the day was dry and the sun came out eventually.
