DF65 Social Racing 2022 #3 (19/1/22)

Sunny, windy and the wind straight down the lake, were the conditions that met sixteen sailors for the DF65 racing today. B rig was the rig of choice, but which at times was over powering in the gusts. RO for the day John Brierley set the course over the full length of the lake and the starting line was extremely competitive with many competitors wanting to get to the clubhouse bank first and gain an advantage. Alan Watkinson continued his form from Saturday, to run out the winner with Dave Williams close behind. Competition was keen for the other podium position, with John Carlin edging out Richard Robinson by the end.
