We had a terrific morning’s IOM racing on Sunday.
A six boat fleet – lots of members travelling this month!! Nigel up in Scotland, and Hugh still not back to full fitness after the Marblehead Worlds. The A-rig wind was a little swirly but Craig set a pretty usable course for the morning, though constant big shifts meant compromises! We considered moving from north to south course a couple of times, but in the end the breeze tended to wobble back to NNE. Bacon rolls were also popular !! Craig’s Proteus looked pretty impressive at the front today …!
Nigel did very well at Huntingdon a couple of weeks back, winning on count back after a closely fought series. Huntingdon have posted a very nice 3 minute video which shows off Nigel’s Proteus very well. Look for the sail number 54 and the red hull. Try at 0’45” , 1’40” and then a lot of footage from around 2’30” onwards.
