IOM 21st March Race 3

A welcome breeze greeted a nine-strong fleet to the start of the day's IOM race event. Three courses were tried and tested:- 

'A': P/Ob - (1-2-Or-5-7) x 2 - Bo/Or.  (4 races).

'B':   "       - (1-5-6) x 2           -    "     .      (1 Race).

'C':    "      - (1-wz-5-6-Ob-4) x 2 - wz/ Or. ((3 races),'wz' for last two)).

The Sou'easter veered somewhat, hence the change of course(s) after the break. A steady wind increase made for fast sailing and focused competition.

The rescue boat was called out to release #71 from the west bank,

and continued with the laying of two new course marks - Orange (South) and Yellow (North). 

(BTW - a scorer's prerogative may appear to have been implemented, without any effect to the overall finishing positions). 

Top trio on points:-1st Place - #30 CS(13); 2nd - #06 CW(13); 3rd- #85 TRS(16).
