A good A+ wind from the Clubhouse end greeted the 15 keen sailors. Alan Watkinson volunteered to be RO and was able to keep the racing at a good pace managing to run 10 races. The wind although strong at times did ease off during the racing causing the usual problems of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Mike and John managed the conditions well taking most of the wins between themselves. Clive Warren, new to radio sailing took 3rd overall with a very consistent run of top 4 positions.

After a quick lunch break, 8 DF95s took to the water sailing the same course as the DF65s with a volunteer RO Paul Little, many thanks go to him on behalf of the “fleet”. Racing to the first mark was very evenly matched as it was only after the spreader that the leading boats managed to pull away. 5 races were held with the last race “three laps”! Thanks go to John Beech for the photos of the DF95’s.
