IOM 2nd June Race 5

Nine boats, Sunshine, a Good breeze and plenty of passers-by all contributed to a great morning's racing. Course 'A's start-line of "5/Y" was re-modelled slightly after race #2. Legend:- Y=Yellow, Z=zero, OB=Orange and Black, OR=Orange and Red, BO=Big Orange.

Start 4/Y - Z - 3 - 6 - OB - 4 - Z - 3 - 6 - OB - 5 - Fin' BO/OR.

Temporary and substantial wind shifts offered many an opportunity to benefit or miss out, giving the already interesting course an added zest throughout.

Scorer's minor correction to Race #6 where sail #16 incurred a penalty and had to re-cross the finish line behind #'s 59 and 06.

Fleet's Top Trio are.....1st Place - #80 JB, 2nd - #85 TR, 3rd - #169 MC.
