IOM Saturday Club Champs #6 sailing results

Hi Skippers,
Where were you all????
We had 4 skippers on the water with blue skies and a good 18-20 knot South to SE wind. It was a fun afternoon and a good warm up for the Nationals.
The 4 skippers who sailed were on B rigs and boy was it fun!!
By heat 4 it was tied between Derick Warne , Doug Turner and myself. Tony Silver was the only consistent sailor all afternoon.
After heat 9 Doug and Derick had 1 point between themselves going into the last race. Tony was determined to beat one of them or both in the last race. That would throw the results wide open.
Doug beat Derick in the last race so their points were tied. Their result went to a countback. Doug eventually got the upper hand over Derick.
Congrats to the place getters:
1st Simon Kellett #58 11 points
2nd Doug Turner #82 16 points
3rd Derick Warne #97 16 points (on countback)
4th Tony Silver #18 30 points

It was a very enjoyable afternoon with fast sailing and close racing.
Thanks to the team effort in packing up the buoybots and to Tony for taking the trailer.
See you all on Tuesday for the H’cap Winter Series.
Happy sailing,
Simon Kellett

DF65 WINTER SCRATCH SERIES – Saturday 18th July

Hi All
Today’s forecast was fairly accurate – 18 knots increasing (SSW going S) which we reached in the gusts – only 6 DF65 skippers fronted this morning all with B rigs on plus warm jackets as there was a definite chill in the air. Today was the first round of our Winter Scratch series.

Highlight of the Day – goes to Brem Hill #496 & Doug Turner #64 both on 18 points with Brem taking out the day on countback. Just proves nice "gentlemen" can race well with minimal incidents ! Really well sailed in a small but competitive fleet ( all skippers had at least one race win )

Thanks, guys, for turning up & participating in such conditions – it was fun …..would have been tempting to stay in a nice warm bed ! Thanks also for parking in the Carpark & preserving our grassy point.

Next session : Tuesday 21st July Round 1 of our DF65 Winter Handicap Series.
Have a great weekend
Cheers
Mark
