An ESE breeze more or less shaped the morning's IOM racing - around a
trapezoidal course:- 8/p - (wz-bo-6-7) x 2 - bo/or. The occasional lull left laggers literally languishing behind the start-line, sometimes to their later windward advantage. On the whole, leading boats had to work to stay ahead of the fleet; cool sailing and brisk pacing along the bank; all of which resulted in seven races.
