Go sail

Sunday 1st November 2009


Weather looks good. A solid NE and sunshine.

Probably doesn't get any better than this...

See you there.

Well, some days the BOM get it right and Sunday was a gret day. NE breeze at 15knots which blew all afternoon.

Three races for the fleet. The first race saw six boats line up.

The big boats led the way with Lazy Bones (LzB) and Big Lake Snake (BLS) heading the fleet.

It was really a progression with LzB and BLS heading away. Beneath them was Slippery When Wet (SWW)and Dripping Sap, both watching each other closely. Dripping Sap was certainly moving well, and it was good to see Tom back on the water again.

Further back was Another Toy, progressing well, and with a competitive yardstick it was important for the other boats to maintain their lead as Les was hunting them down. Another Toy 1st, followed by Slippery When Wet then Big Lake Snake and Dripping Sap and finally Lazy Bones.

The second race was a two lap race and with teh wind increasing to a consistent 15+ knots, it was a great race. The fleet startd closely and headed to the top mark. By the top mark it was Slipper When Wet, Lazy Bones and Big Lake Snake all chasing each other. At times there were mere centimeters separating Lazy Bones and Slippery When Wet as they sped across to the reaching mark. Down wind it was the Big Lake Snake who seemed to dominate the runs to the bottom mark. Rounding in first place.

Overall it was Big Lake Snake first, followed by Slipper When Wet and then Lazy Bones in third, fourth was Dripping Sap then Another Toy. Adjusted the results were SWW, BLS, AT, DS and LzB.

The third race saw some of the fleet retire and head to shore. The final race was again a two lap dash.Slippery When Wet took the opportunity to eloit the long line and fewer starters and ran down the line, gybed and crossed on port tack. This ensured one fewer tack to the top mark. Immedaitely after the start, BLS tacked and followed SWW to the top mark. From then on it was a procession with SWW holding out both Lazy Bones and the Big Lake Snake to record an outright and handicap win.

Yardstick Adjustments

Yardstick Adjustment- If not already at VY Yardstick. You cannot be placed on a yardstick below the YV rating.

Only adjusted based on sailed races

Note Tom Dalton has had his Yardstick adjusted 6.5 to 77.5. Based on the original A class yardstick – which the boat is a based on. This is a reasonable adjustment as a Taipan 4.9 cat is 76.5.

Yardstick changes are made on the overall point score, not the days racing. So a bad day at the office doesn't merit 2+ yardsticks.

The completed yardsticks can be reset at any time and we can score all the seasons races at the end of the season on true* yardstick.

*Tom's A-Class stands at 77.5 as his true yardstick.
