julyanrichardson

Six competitors turned out to sail the third IOM event of the series.

'A' Rigs were set up to match the strengthening sou'westerly breeze. 

#71's helm chartered # 'R06', having encountered a technical hitch.

Course A held good throughout the morning:


        1/OR Start - (6-7-OR-W0)x2 - Fin' 4/OB.


Four boats achieved first(s) across the finish line. There were varied, if not interesting approaches to the windward mark, translating into a variety of hails and ensuing close encounters.


Top Trio on points:- 1st Place - #06 CW; 2nd - #16 JR; 3rd - #53 JS.
