A cold but bright afternoon greeted the six RG65 sailors, with the light wind from the Clubhouse end it was necessary to move the start line down the lake and ignore the gate, due to patches of ice, which did melt during the afternoon. The rig of the day was top A, we had two Ivy’s and four UNO’s and managed 10 races before bad light made it difficult to see the boats.
Alan Bennett decided this was going to be his day and aced the ten races. He didn’t have it his own way up to the windward mark but then downwind he just vanished. The UNO sailors were then left with trying to get the better of Gary sailing the other Ivy but ultimately felt short.
The UNO sailors were quite evenly matched with John coming out on top but having a few extremely close finishes with Charles. Unfortunately Alan Watkinson missed a few races due to winch problems. Overall the afternoon was very enjoyable with hopes of a few more sailors for the next race. on the 31st January.
