Race Report – Weekend of 23/24 September !

Results from the weekend… we had Tens on Saturday and IOMs on Sunday.


On Saturday we had 5 Tens for the first time in ages with a surprise appearance of Nic with his Diamond.  

Results were;
Phil 7 pts
Richard U 11 pts
Graham 18 pts
Nic. 21 pts. Winch failure after 6 races
Hugh 31 pts Servo failure after one race.
It was sailed mostly with top rig, except Richard who broke a shroud rigging, so sailed with his second rig.

We had several notable absentees who were away at the RG65s….so Sunday saw 6 IOMs sail 10 races in no 2 rig.  Richard J kindly acted as race officer for the day.  His new IOM has arrived but no rigs as of Sunday.  We were also joined by James Hadden from Gosport who wanted some practice before the Europeans in October.

Results were;
Nigel 10 pts
Hugh 15 pts
James 20 pts (Guest)
Peter. 26 pts finished with a broken Forestay🫤
David 28 pts left on domestic duties after 6 races
Les 42 pts.

I shall also take the opportunity to congratulate those after the RG65s at West Kirby. Good result!

The IOM Europeans in Spain are in a couple of weeks time. Nigel will be attending.

Also the very good news that Richard Jones has joined the Committee to front up publicity.  Watch this space😁
