On Saturday we held our first DF95 club racing with up to 8 boats, including some guests.  As it was the first time out for many we did no scoring and the wind was not kind we us as we had to shift from the north course to the south after a few races.  Some found to their cost that the green stuff on the waterline is ultra slippery when trying to retrieve their boats, however it was a successful day. 

On Sunday we had 8 Marbleheads including two guests.  Again the wind was not kind to us and the selected windward mark was too far away and not suitable as Richard found when the top pole caught his back stay twice.  It was positioned such that we were beating away from ourselves and judgement was difficult and frustrating to the extent that Richard and myself retired for the day, Jim sailing a borrowed boat had to retire with technical problems!
