Hi Skippers,
We had 12 sailors this afternoon including Garth Halton #40 with his new ” Rogue ” IOM. The breeze was a little shifty with gusts coming from the West / SW and the lulls were from the South to SE. Getting it right was the key. 5 to 15 knots shifting winds.
Garth showed off the speed of his new yacht and won 6 of the 10 heats conducted. Sailing out of trouble was very important as one mistake proved to be very costly. Garth’s results have been removed from sailscores results.
Derick Warne #97 and John Halloran #83 showed great consistency all afternoon with many podium finishes. Well sailed !!
Congrats to the place getters;
1st Simon Kellett #58 15 points
2nd Derick Warne #97 17 points
3rd John Halloran #83 25 points

Thanks to Bill Heritage for helping score the afternoon and run the start box. Much appreciated !!
Thanks for the team effort in packing up the buoybots. Our new keel pull ties work well as the keel on Bot #5 fell off the metal bracket but we managed to get it to shore and the keel was still there.
See you all on Tuesday.
Happy sailing,
Simon K
