A poor turn out of only four RG65 sailors although it was an almost perfect sailing day. The wind was straight down the lake with very few shifts sunny but a chilling wind. B rig conventional seemed to be the suit of choice with Charles opting for B swing. Starting on time with self umpiring in force most starts went as planned although Dave was caught out twice in succession.
From the start Bill set out to show us how well his Ivy sailed and dominated the afternoon’s twelve races. Alan sailing his UNO was the only person to put up a challenge but faded by the start of the second lap on a few races. An early break was called for with Bill stepping in to sort out Charles and Dave’s boats. Returning to sailing and the same formation continued with only Dave and Charles having a race, while Bill and Alan disappeared way ahead. Although the finishing order had been predicted it was still a very pleasant race afternoon with twelve races completed. Three of the sailors did agree to pose for a photo before they could depart.
