DF 65 summer series round 5 22nd August 2021

11 Skippers turned up on an overcast morning.  The wind was light from the north, north west.  In the absence of a race officer and assistance race officer it was all hands to the pump, but thanks must go to Dave Rigby and Keith Holmes who stood in as RO and ARO, and also thanks to everyone else who helped out.    Starting on the East Bank nearest the road, racing got off bang on 10am.  After only a few races we moved to the other bank where it was a simple beat up the lake, spreader and a leeward mark, with three beats taken in each race. 

With the change of wind direction from the previous week, some of the salad made an appearance, so racing at times had an element of luck in it. 

A good morning was had by all, including our visitor Simon Fairman who finished third.    Usual suspects up front with Keith Holmes taking the win, closely followed by Dave Rigby and Mike Williams was the third club boat home.  Well done to all.
