Hi Skippers
Usual story – 5-6 knot SW breeze initially that soon went Southerly & increased to 8-10 knots with 12 knot gusts at times.
We had boats with A+, A & B rigs – most ended up on B. 6 boats on the water – one visitor with a new boat not shown on the score sheet.

Check out the DF65 Winter scratch series here : https://www.sailscores.com/SCRSC/2026/2026-df65-winter-scratch-series. We now move into our Spring series. Thanks to Greg Adams for scoring.
Highlight of the Day : Again Kim Mitchell #42 won the day with 5 race wins – followed by Doug Turner #64 who took out the winter series by 1 point.
Next Tuesday 18th : As we have the IOM Australian Championships from Wednesday 19th to Sunday 23rd next week I need to be running around finalising a few things so will cancel DF65 racing unless we have a volunteer to run it – there will be no Buoybots that day as they will be getting prepared for the Nationals. Unless you hear from me Tuesday will be cancelled – anyone wanting to run the morning ( Winter Handicap series ) please let me know asap.
Next Saturday 22nd August – definitely no DF65 racing as there will be 64 IOMs on the Lake that day. Sorry guys – back to normal on Tuesday 25th August.
Have a great week. Call in & watch some of the best IOM skippers compete for the IOM National title. Racing from 10am each morning.
Cheers
Mark
