Hi Skippers,
It was a really nice afternoon with blue sky and sunshine.
The 5 knot breeze was swinging from South to SE all afternoon with puffs and lulls. This kept all 5 skippers on their toes.
It was D Day today!!
Derick Warne was unstoppable taking out 6 of the 10 heat wins. Well sailed!!
Doug Turner #82 had his “woody” in tune and finished in second place. Geoff Morris #96 had water in his yacht which meant he took on RO duties until the sun dried out the bilges. He was back after 3 heats. He then wrestled with Derick and Doug for the rest of the afternoon.
Congrats to the place getters:
1st Derick Warne #97 10 points
2nd Doug Turner #82 20 points
3rd Geoff Morris #96 21 points

Thanks to Derick for taking the trailer to Tony’s and to Dan & Derick for their help with the 4 buoybots. Doug did the flags. A team effort all round. Much appreciated.!
It was a very enjoyable afternoon with good humor and close racing.
See you all on Tuesday.
Happy sailing,
Simon Kellett
