DF65 Results 12 October'22

12 skippers arrived in lovely sunny weather, but a flat calm delayed racing for about 15 minutes. The forecast SW then started from the NE and allowed a single lap race: 4/Y,OB,4/Y. As the wind picked up this was increased to 2 laps for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th races and after the break a new course of OB/0,7,Y,OB,2,8,Y,OB,2,5/8 was made possible as the wind had turned through 180º. Some very close finishes with places changing all the way round and also some races where one group of boats got well ahead of another.


Today's top three are J Richardson (43), R Dyer (25) and J Bennett (002). Congratulations to them.


Best wishes,

Bruce
