DF 95 Summer series round 6, 10th August 2025

A wonderful summers morning greeted 8 skippers, not a breath at 0930 but a whisper at 10 am , and that was going to increase and give the fleet some exciting but tricky conditions, Pete and Rob got the course all set up, with two long beats and runs, perfect, but hey wait a minute we spied a visitor, he seemed pretty keen and after a brief chat just before the start of the first race, we decided to let him have a go, He borrowed Robs boat for a couple of races , and them Mick handed over his boat for the remainder of the morning, Malcom was his name and he had fun with his first time radio sailing . Moving on to the real business, Pete after a lengthy absence came roaring back and after a first race 5th, he had three bullets on the trot, Sam 59 was sailing well but went thru a brain fade in races 4 and 5 , Sam of course is in contention for the series and after that bucked his idea’s up , Colin 301 the other contender in the series was having a steady morning, in fact he won the last race, brilliant stuff , Kevin 02 could have done better and he knows it, he just cant get out of a ( in my view ) bad habit,,,, Colin T 431 was enjoying himself , and Mick C yes Cooperman, just could not get the boat going , personally he just did not seem at the races today and I think he would agree. Mean while our visitor Malcom was getting the hang of things and enjoying himself immensely, while Mick gave a few tips and generally took the scores, Pete as you would expect did the business , Sam just pipped Rob, ok a couple regulars missing, but it is all to play for in round 7 , so watch this space, a great morning racing, with no sign of the jolly green giant, and the lake looks stunning.

Well done everybody .
