IOM Club Series #5 25/5/19

Four home skippers were joined by four visitors from Etherow to create a close fought afternoon of sailing.  The Top Suit wind was generally down the lake from the WNW, but with some good shifts and a few holes to make things “interesting”.  Five people shared the wins during the 10 races, with John Brierley getting the lions share of 4, Alan Watkinson and Peter Baldwin had two each and then Howard Garner and Steve Toulson getting one.

When the scores were totalled up, John Brierley was the clear winner with Alan Watkinson second, just ahead of Peter Baldwin.  Visitor Howard Garner finished a very creditable 4th in his Widget bought for just £50.
