Eastleigh and District Model Boat Club

I am grateful to JohnB for providing the details of today's racing: Six sailors arrived expecting wind and some rain. The wind was SW and top end of A+ at times, and a lot lower at others. The course was Orange-1,brown,pink,orange,3,brown,pink,orange,brown-pink Roger had a jib tie down breakage and ended up on an 'A' rig, also having several phone calls didn't help his day either. Racing was pretty good at times, the final leg was as usual a good place to win or lose places !

7 sailors braved the heat to compete in the 4th round of the May-Jun series. The wind started very light then rose as the morning wore on ending with some strong gusts (enough to blow your hat off). The course was M/P, Y, 3, M, Y, 3, M, Y/1 with the first couple of races only having 1 lap. The wind direction changes kept everyone on their toes and made tactical decisions somewhat of a lottery. Those with more winning numbers today were: 1st - J Bennett (12) 2nd - I White (17)
