Forecast was for light winds, bit of an exaggeration, but what’s new since the Michael Fish Fiasco way back when, a whisper of wind more like, but enough to worry some skippers, or should I say lightweights who may have got blown into the lake. We welcomed Jon Lee to our sailing today and hopefully he will become a full time member, it was his first time sailing a DF 95 but showed enough that he will soon get the hang of it. Tim took over duties from Cooperman who managed to pick up Covid man on his recent trip to Italy, all chipped in and helped out and a course was laid , while some of us cleared the remnants of green stuff from the edges, Mick C 46 got of to a great start and drifted to the weather mark first and was not caught, The race was really on Colin H 301 and Kevin E 02 who were virtually equal top in the series, Tim H then put a string of good results together with I may add his new DF 95, he will be a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming Winter series, Richard J 699 was having a decent day, which taught most of us a thing or two about light airs sailing, at the end of the morning Tim H 10 took the top spot, and Micky Boy took second, the pressure, told on Kevin and Colin, and they will need to up their game, to be a threat in the Winter series , there could well be some tuning tips and advice some Wednesdays, who knows . A good morning with pleasant banter on the bank as always.
Well Done Tim , and also well done to all for the help in getting it all sorted.
