DF65 Racing Results 31-May'23

13 sailors attended a sunny morning with a fresh NE breeze to compete for the 5th race in the May-June series.


Owing to an error on the scorer's part, the fist heat had to be abandoned as the lead boats incorrectly went past buoy "O" and rounded buoy "0" - sorry guys. The correct course was Y/4, 0, 4, B, R, O, 4, B, 0/O and 9 heats were raced with either 1 or two observers for each heat.


There was some brisk and close racing, but the calms and wind direction changes beating to and rounding R could be rather challenging.


Today's top three were:


1st - J Bennett (002)

2nd - R Bridges (33)

3rd - C Wilson (06)


Well done to them and all for an enjoyable morning.


Best wishes,

Bruce
