DF95 Racing Today !!

DF 95 results today.  

The day started with very little wind and what there was was shifting through 90 degrees and sometimes 180.  Racing was delayed, then the wind more or less decided on the forecast, so racing got underway.  

We finally managed 6 races in what was always shifty with many holes.  Eventually Nigel came out clear winner with 5 wins and discarding a third.  Second was Hugh with 9 points. Third was Peter with 13 points followed by Phil with 14 and finally Geoffrey on 23 with one of the club boats,  it’s great to see him back sailing.
Hopefully the wind is a bit kinder tomorrow.

The Club launches a new DF95 Series with Two New Loan Boats….

The clubs new 95’s ready to go, Just add water.                                       

Datchet have acquired two new DF95s as loan boats to encourage newcomers to take up the sport.  The club are introducing a series for the DF95 class to take place on alternate Saturdays on the same weekend as Sunday Marbleheads. This coming Saturday (17th) will be the first date and we will have a one-off day of racing for all those interested in sailing DF95’s regularly and to decide amongst the members how they would like to progress a regular series. We are also encouraging mid week sailing which is currently suggested to be on Wednesdays but could just as easily be on a different day. Anyone who is interested or who has a DF95 already is encouraged to come this Saturday to discuss formats and dates.If you want to try one of the new club boats then please email us via the contact page of this website.
