Nice mild morning 7-10 degrees but whispering breeze.
We had a quick Worlds Committee Meeting, then got to the serious business!! Eight of us – six racing with our Marbleheads (swing rigs) plus two ultra quick top team IOMs.
Great day !
It was blinking cold down at Chipstead yesterday. Only five skippers turned out but the racing was actually jolly close. The F6 cleaned up the podium!!
Breezes were fickle as can be – classic Chipstead but the best guys kept own getting it right. They managed 11 races by lunchtime so there was plenty going on!
Our Datchet members did well, cleaning up first and second – With Nigel just squeezing it from Phil by 0.8 points!!
(Phil’s F6, number 66, looking very nice in the light breeze beating out to the top mark)
I reckon we had three Datchet Radio Sailing members at Games 8 – Nigel, Phil and Chris were expected. It was a little fresh though 🙂
Nigel with his F6 won it on countback – wahoo to Nigel !!
Meanwhile back at the Club, the Reservoir is almost up to the brim now!
