Race Report – 4th and 5th November 2023

Leave a reply

The Weekend’s results:-

Four Tens were out on Saturday with a delayed start due to rain/drizzle and an uncooperative wind, we eventually got going on the South Course and did four races before a lunch break.  Two of us changed down at this point and this proved disastrous for Phil, who had stayed in top rig, as he nose dived big time at the last spreader of the last race to let myself through to win the day by one point.  Full results were 
Hugh 8 pts
Phil 9 pts
Richard U 15 pts
Graham 20 pts

Sunday :-

We had 4 skippers for IOMs however two did not have no. 3 Rigs, or it C rigs these days and Les and myself thought it would not be much fun with two and anyway Les does not like waves!  

In fairness it was West 15 gusting 23 knots 

Race Report -Weekend of 9/10 September 2023

Last Saturday at Datchet we had no Tens racing due to a combination of lack of boats and no wind.  But we did manage a bit of Marblehead drifting in the blistering heat.  This was followed later in the day by the Club triathlon and a very nice hog roast all be it still very warm.

On Sunday we managed some IOM racing in light and fickle conditions and the results after 7 races was;


1st Dorian 8pts
2nd Vernon 13pts
3rd Les 14pts (including one win)
4th Hugh 21pts (electric problems)

Next weekend should be Marbleheads, but with most at the Marblehead Nationals any racing at Datchet is less likely as many will be away at Keighley.
