DF/RG Winter Series Round 5 31st January 2016

A cold wet morning greeted 5 skippers. The wind from the south east left the south bank and the east bank in heavy wind shadow. After much discussion and cogitation, which delayed the start, a reasonable course was set along the south bank. Ed, who was allocated sail number 0 due to his official number not yet being available, had radio problems from the start and did not manage a finish. sailing was extended to 13.00 hrs by which time 7 races had been completed. The well separated results do not reflect the closeness of the racing on the water.

IOM Winter Championship Round 4 17th January 2016

6 hardy individuals turned out on a cold windless morning. Bert had brought his only boat, a Dragon Force and chose not to join in the racing. Ivan had radio problems from before the start of the first race so had no scores to record. The remaining 4 struggled for the early races but were rewarded by an only slightly improved wind from the SE which at least provided some reasonable racing later.

A fine warm morning with a wind which could not make up its mind which way to blow from made sailing interesting.
