Sixteen Sailors turned out for this weeks DF65 Race No 6 of the Winter Series.
It was a brisk and chilly Westerly breeze, with ‘A’ rigs the choice of sails for the day. The breeze stayed steady at about force 2 – 3, with choppy conditions down at the start line and the lower gate proving a bit tricky, with lighter conditions up at the top end of the course.
Today’s Race officer – James Douglas – did a grand job of keeping the racing flowing quickly, and handled the difficult task of policing the start line in poor light on the far side of the lake. Neil and Richard both suffered radio equipment problems, significantly affecting their results today, but they will be back fighting fit for more DF65 action.
Great racing as ever, in the growing DF65 fleet, with everyone enjoying a high standard of racing and camaraderie.
