(Most recent races at top of page)

WNW winds to 18 knots made it a reaching course for most legs so yachts were up to speed and racing was fast and furious.  Richard reveled in these conditions and creamed the fleet.  The wild cold conditions during the previous week had moderated and made the day enjoyable.

Ben really likes these 5-8 knot winds with his deep sails just seems to accelerate well in the light gusts.  Wind was from the NNE and a little variable.

Gentle reaching conditions from a 10 knot ENE breeze everyone up to hull speed and not many passing options but still an exciting day.  Once again Roger and Don only separated by the result in the lst race ie both had 3 firsts, 3 seconds, 1 third and 3 fourths after discards removed and ended up on 24 pts each. So results determined by position in last race.

Another cool day with S to SW winds around 5-10 knots depending where yo were in the Marina.  Standard coruse of course with no rain and standard drinks after racing.  (Good to see standards are being uipheld!)

Not quite so cold but we were put off by a bit of rain and a dark cloud.  A few drinks and nibbles was just the ticket.  The conditions were tricky with light winds a few gusts and direction changes often.

A cold brrrrr! day (except where Phil was sitting apparently) with steady 8-10 knot breeze from ENE.  While this resulted in very little real beating it did produce some close racing as everyone was up to speed off the wind.  Ben and Richard were only separated by the last result as removing the two discards allowed, they both had 3 firsts, 5 seconds, one third and one fourth.  Under those conditions the result is based on the result of the last race where they did not have a tie!

A gentle day with 'A' rigs all round.  Wind was a little shifty and required constant attention to tack on the knocks.  Phil managed us with aplomb as always and gave us an intersting and pleasant sail

The predicted northish wind didn't appear which made for close sailing.  If you managed to get the small wind gusts, you were lucky and all finishes were very close.  Rain squall was coming on the horizen so it was "Let's get out of here and stay dry."  (Thanks Don!)

Well, Don continued on his winning way having excellent boat speed and great pointing ability.  Roger was pushing him all the way.  Ben hgad radio issues and lost adjustments on his winch so will need a bit of care to get settings back.

Late start due to rain, WNW 10>12 knot breeze and good close racing. Phil set the usual Y course and know body forgot the last lap.

(There will be racing on Monday for those that are interested)
