Racing – 30th March

Some lovely sun and force 3 winds from the west today. 11 sailors made it out in some testing winds.

The Pursuit Race was won by Newton (Solo), who extends his lead in the series. Followed by Richard & Louise (2000) and Karen (Comet) in third.

I have no idea what happened in the handicap race, the results haven’t been published due to a query in the results. I’ll leave you to speculate but the only logical explanation I can think of is some form of match fixing by high level figures in organized crime.

Detective Dave is on the case, and the results will be posted in due course.

Plenty of capsizes today, with Ralph, Steve P and Harry P all sampling the water. Rick also had to retire after his rigging broke.

A big thank you to James and his team for organizing the racing and for providing some much needed safety boat cover.

The last Soup Sunday today was Leek and Potato, made by Ann, who also brought cake along.
