Race Report – IOM Pre Nationals Tune Up, 19th September

7 IOM’s turned up for a pre nationals tune and practice today. A little breezy…No 2 rig and a long course tested all the skippers.

David Lindsay forgot his transmitter and missed the first 4 races going home and back. Peter Haskell had winch problems and had to retire after the first few races. The rest managed a total of 13 races plus numerous start sequence practices before packing up.


Final result, Nigel Barrow 16, Craig Richards 17, David Lindsay 39, Phil Holliday, 45 Rob Dyer 48, Simon Fairman 51


Do it all again tomorrow with Marbleheads!!
