DF65 Racing 19 Oct'22

9 Sailors competed in blustery conditions, which got better later in the morning which ended in warm sunshine and reasonably consistent moderate E to NE breeze. The course was 4/Y,OB,4,5,OB,4,5,OB/W with W added and a wing mark after OB after a couple of heats.


Racing was sometimes close and sometimes spread apart, depending largely on when the header between 5 and OB kicked in. Bruce's sail winch gave up at the beginning of heat 5, but everyone else survived unscathed.


The top three today were 1st-J Bennett (002), 2nd-C Wilson (06) and 3rd-J Richardson (43).


Best wishes,

Bruce
