Jul 29
1 min read

7 sailors braved the latest heatwave to compete in the 5th round of the Jul-Aug series. With a very light breeze initially a course of O/B, P, O, M/P was set. As that was completes in 5 minutes it was extended to O/B, 8, 7, O, M/P and subsequently B was added after O in the attempt to provide a better beat. The wind filled in a little, but was still very variable in direction, necessitating high concentration from the sailors.


Those who kept focused the best today were:


1st - I White (17)

2nd - J Richardson (19)

3rd - J Bennett (20)


Well done to them and to all for avoiding heatstroke.


Best wishes,

Bruce
