DF65 Racing Results 24-Apr'24

12 skippers arrived on a cool overcast morning to contest the final round of the Mar-Apr series. In a light N breeze, Chris set a course of 8/A, B, 8, P, Q, B, 8, P, B/R.

Single race observers were set for each race and those races were scored as an average of their other races (1 decimal place displayed). Whilst the breeze picked up a little and sailing was at times brisk, holes, particularly round "B" and near the finish caused a number of position changes.

Those on the podium today are:

1st - J Bennett (14.6)

2nd - C Wilson (16)

3rd - R Dyer (22.1)

The top three for the series are:

1st - C Wilson (9)

2nd - J Bennett (12)

3rd - J Richardson (17)

Well done to all for an enjoyable morning's sail and also to R Dyer, A Dore and C Forman who competed in very cold weather in the Nationals last weekend.

Best wishes,

Bruce

DF65 Racing Results 17-Apr'24

A bright, but cold and windy day provided the setting for the seventh round of the Mar-Apr series. 13 skippers competed and a single race observer was allocated for each race. Chris set a course of 6/P, 4, 7, A, B, 4, 7, A, 4/R and 9 heats were raced. Not all skippers were race observers, so those who did (OBA) were given a place for their OBA heat as the average of their other heat places (minus discards).

The top three today are:

1st - R Dyer(13)

2nd - J Bennett(16)

3rd - J Richardson(21)

Congratulations to them and all the best to those racing in the Nationals this coming weekend.

Best wishes,

Bruce
