DF65 Racing Results 2-Oct'24

10 skippers arrived at Lakeside hoping that the forecast of a dry morning and 10kn of wind would provide excellent racing conditions. In the event there was a little rain and the wind gradually decreased through the morning. However, the racing was exciting at times and there were some close finishes. The initial course of 8/P, 0, 8, R, 0, 8, P, B/R was replaced by 5/A, R, 8, 7, R, 8, 7, B/R after 1 race to take advantage of the stronger wind at the southern end of the lake.


Today's podium is:


1st - C Wilson (11)

2nd - J Richardson (13)

3rd - C Bennett (17)


Well done to them and to all for an enjoyable morning's sail.


Best wishes,

Bruce
