It was a similar wind to last week about 10-11 mph\nfrom the SW. Newton set the first beat to A (just the other side of Tektona)\nthen 1, 5, 7, 6 and back through the start. The start was unusual inthat it was\naway from the flagpole in the middle of the lake with the pin near the buoy\nline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There were 20 starters and first back across the\nline was Ellen (Laser) closely followed by Karen (Laser). Ed (Radial) came\nthrough next just ahead of Mark (Laser) leading Rick (Laser), Steve S (Solo), Dean\n& Nick (Vago) and Mike Tr (laser). About 30 seconds later Mike C & Sam\n(Wanderer) crossed in 9th<\/sup> place followed by Mike A (Lightning) and\nthen the two Leaders of Dave & Ann and Sally & Stuart. Peter R was next\nalong sailing his Enterprise single handed and he led Chris (Comet), Jeremy (Laser),\nAlistair (Vago s\/h) and Paul H (Laser). Further back came Chris & Carol\n(420), Jemima (Oppie) and Emily (Topper).<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the end of the second lap Ellen and Karen still led, but Dean & Nick had moved up two places to 3rd<\/sup>. Ed and Mark crossed the line together in the battle for 4th<\/sup> place and Steve S crossed in 6th<\/sup>. \u00a0Dave & Ann had got past Mike C & Sam to move up to 8th<\/sup> with Sally & Stuart following them up to 9th<\/sup> place. Adrian was up four places to 13th<\/sup> just\nbehind Peter R in 12th<\/sup> place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the third lap there was no change with the two leaders, but 3rd<\/sup> place was now taken by Mark. Steve S, Mike Tr and Rick all gained two places moving up to 4th<\/sup>, 5th<\/sup> and 6th<\/sup> respectively. The boats behind these three had all lost places and the next mover up the order was Alistair S gaining four places to 11th<\/sup> followed by Chris H up two places to 12th<\/sup> and Paul H up one place. Emily had passed Jemima and these two received the gun at the end of the lap and Peter R retired..<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ellen crossed the line in 1st<\/sup> place at\nthe end of the last lap followed by Karen and Mark. Dean & Nick had\nregained some of the places they lost on the previous lap and came through to\nfinish in 4th<\/sup> place and Rick gained two places to finish 5th<\/sup>.\nEd also regained two places and just pipped Steve across the line for 6th<\/sup>\nplace. The only mover further back was Jeremy who managed to gain a place by\npassing Mike C &Sam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The final order on the water was \u2013 1st<\/sup>\nEllen; 2nd<\/sup> Kare; 3rd<\/sup> Mark; 4th<\/sup> Dean &\nNick; 5th<\/sup> Rick; 6th<\/sup> Ed<\/p>\n\n\n\n On corrected time this becomes \u2013 1st<\/sup> Jemima; 2nd<\/sup> Ellen ; 3rd<\/sup>\nKaren; 4th<\/sup> Dave & Ann and equal 5th<\/sup> Mark and Steve S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks to Newton and the OOD Team of Bob L, Estel, Mike\nT, Monica, Niki and Lalla. \n\n\n\n\n\n-si<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It was a similar wind to last week about 10-11 mph from the SW.
