September

Sunday 3rd:

1st racing of the season.
Get the cobwebs out of the system. A two race day with a scratch start to get us all up and running. 2 races each race around 40 minutes.

The wind was from the North and North west. It was a slow start to the morning with the boats arriving in dribs and drabs.

Eventually all was ready.

Welcome new sailors to the Club, Fabrice on his Maricat and Peter on his Taipan 4.9. Welcome back to Steve with his Tornado which was a welcome sight on the shores. Tim has finally reconstructed the 5.7 and all was ready for a great afternoon to kick off the season.

Brian and Ross set the course a windward and return cours, not too long.

It was a good start for Fabrice and Peter as the wind had lightened which allowed some time for them to brush the cobwebs off and rediscover some old skills.

Like a duck to water, Peter took no time to settle in to the groove and was in good form.

Outright results:

1st Steve Booth
2nd Peter
3rd Scott
4th Tim
5th Les
6th Fabrice
