DF95 Racing Today – Saturday 27th April

Leave a reply

Results from 95s today.

Four managed 10 races in A rig on a cold day with a shifty NE breeze but no rain.

Phil 11 pts
Hugh 11 pts
Peter 18 pts
Geoffrey 27 pts

Geoffrey did however score two seconds. Phil won on count back by the fact of beating Hugh in the last race, though there was a questionable incident between the two on the finishing mark, which did not go to protest but involved windward boat (Hugh) and mark room (Hugh)!

Despite this incident the racing was mostly very close on a simple windward leeward course and mostly in a friendly spirit!!!

Marbleheads on a Quieter Easter Sunday ….!!

Three of us defied our families to sail M’s today!

Graham had his new F6.2 out for the first time and showed great speed,  Jim borrowed my F6 and I sailed the Niou-Niou.

The wind varied from bottom to top of A rig with some pretty big swirls as it made its way around the clubhouse but we managed some very close racing even though Jim couldn’t get used to the length of the Marblehead fin when passing marks he quickly got to grips with the boat and came out eventual winner.

A great Easter Sunday morning.
