DF65 Social Racing #14 30/12/20

The last Race of 2020 saw 8 DF65 sailors arrive for a chilly windless start to the morning. R.O. Neil decided on a single lap course on the far side, to make the most of a very light westerly breeze.

John took a First and a Fourth in the first two races before deciding he had better things to do than drift around the lake. That left the rest of us to share in achieving line honours, and first places were then spread across the fleet.  Then later, as the wind filled, in the sailing became – well – proper sailing !

John, Sally and Neil had one win each, Charles and Richard
two wins apiece and Andrew had three wins, taking first place overall.
Thanks again to Neil Westbrook for acting as R.O.
