Gillette Junior Series 2 – 4th August 2021

Last week the Junior race had to be cancelled because of too much wind and this week there was hardly enough, but at least it was warm and sunny!

Seven starters out tonight in a mixture of 4.7s, Toppers and Oppies and Karen had wisely set a short course.

 Emily (4.7) was first back across the line well ahead of Fleur in her Topper. Ollie going well in his Oppie crossed the line in 3rd place with Phoebe in another Topper in 4th. Then along came Frances (Oppie) closely followed by Lucy (4.7) and then William in another Topper.

On the second lap Emily and Fleur were still leading, but Phoebe had moved up to 3rd place by passing Ollie and Lucy had caught and passed Frances.

The final positions on corrected time were – 1st Ollie; 2nd Frances; 3rd Fleur; 4th Emily; 5th Phoebe; 6th Lucy; 7th William.

Well done to all of you for finishing in the difficult wind conditions.

Thanks to Karen for organising the race and to Dan and Richard S for helping out.
