It was another windy Sunday morning with a 16 mph West\nwind and gust of 30 + mph, which resulted in a number of capsizes. Richard S\nset the first beat to 5 then 2, 3, 8, 6, 7 and back through the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pursuit Race <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Only six starters this morning\nwith four Lasers, a Comet and a Leader. At the end of the first lap Jon had\ncome through to take the lead with early starter Chris hanging on to 2nd<\/sup>\nplace. Dave & Ann in their Leader were lying 3rd<\/sup> with Frans 4th<\/sup>.\nAt the gun the final positions were \u2013 <\/p>\n\n\n\n 1st<\/sup> Jon; 2nd<\/sup>\nDave & Ann; 3rd<\/sup> Franz; 4th<\/sup> Chris; 5th<\/sup>\nAlistair S and 6th<\/sup> Rick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Handicap Race<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No dropouts for the second race and again Jon\n(Laser) was first back through the line about one minute ahead of Dave &\nAnn (Leader), who were two minutes ahead of Rick (Laser) in 3rd<\/sup>\nplace. Chris (Comet), Alistair (Laser) and Franz (Laser) crossed the line\nfairly close together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the second lap there was no change in order at\nthe front of the race, but Franz had moved up three places to 3rd<\/sup>\nposition. Rick was now 4th<\/sup> with Alistair 5th<\/sup> and Chris\nnot far behind him in 6th<\/sup> place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the last lap Jon went for a dip, but quickly recovered and kept his position and Dave & Ann were just rounding 6 when they caught a strong gust but managed to survive. Roland popped in the clubhouse to check the wind strength which was showing 35 mph! There were no actual changes in position, so the finishing order was \u2013 <\/p>\n\n\n\n 1st<\/sup> Jon; 2nd<\/sup> Dave & Ann; 3rd<\/sup> Franz; 4th<\/sup> Rick; 5th<\/sup> Alistair; 6th<\/sup> Chris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On corrected time the only change is Chris leapfrogging\nRick and Alistair to move up to 4th<\/sup> place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks to Richard S and the OOD Team of Aileen, Eva,\nJohn R, Julian W, Nick J, Nick M and Roland L. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It was another windy Sunday morning with a 16 mph West wind and gust of 30 + mph, which resulted in a number of capsizes.
