DF65 Racing Results 23-Oct'24

11 skippers arrived at Lakeside more in hope than expectation as the lake resembled a mirror. The optimists asserted that the wind was due to increase - the sceptics won. After an hour's chat and watching Chris Forman's RG65 make some progress, we had a coffee break, Then a race was started, but as only half the fleet managed to get to the finish all further attempts were abandoned. The good news was that by then the sun had come out.


Hope for better conditions next week.


Best wishes,

Bruce
