DF 95 Summer series round 7 31st August 2025 .

Wow what a great day of racing, breeze , a really nice firm top suit day, it started breezy and gradually got stronger, with one or two tasty moments in the last couple of races, Tim was there bright and early and had already sorted the course out on the East Bank ( Most’s favourite) with the prevailing wind. we had 10 skipper’s out, and really we all went home with a broad smile. Micky boy took the first bullet, and Martyn the second, The breeze even though good was still quite fluky and you needed to be on your toes to take advantage, going beyond the lay line was not a great idea, and on occasions a starboard hand lift near the bank definitely paid dividends. Martyn took the third , while Tim was not quite on it as he usually is, however he picked up a couple of seconds in race 3 & 4 , Sam P was strong putting together some nice average scores as was Colin H and of course these guys along with Martyn were keeping their eyes on each other re the final cumulative. Kevin was a bit up and down, and like most of us is seaching for that magic word that escapes my lips at the moment, My eye was noticed looking toward young Colin T , dont know why but his sailing was definitely on the up and he appeared to be sailing much better in fact he got a third in race 8, well done. Jen was steady as always, and Dave C or Clarky as he like to be called is steadily improving, but enjoying himself, It was quite a fierce battle at the sharp end, and with 9 races completed Micky boy , “yes I know he is getting on a bit ” , but he took five wins, and his green machine look pretty quick on the day, so very well done to him. I must say the lake looks in superb condition, and is a credit to the club, final thanks to Tim for getting the stuff out and of course for putting it all away,

A great day of racing once again at Lincoln. And many thanks to all who made the racing so pleasant.
