Last year there were three back-to-back races and 13 starters, but this year there were two races and only two starters!.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SOOD Peter Rose had a difficult task of trying to set a course with virtually no wind and the conditions on the race sheet were listed as \u2013 Calm\/Nada\/ Zilch\/2 mph?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nevertheless he persevered and used a triangular course 6, 5, 8 and back through the line. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Race 1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This was a thrilling affair and Chris H\/Comet increased the tension by being over the line at the start. This gave Aileen in her Comet the chance to get away and she took the victory<\/p>\n\n\n\n Race 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n You will never guess what happened in the second race!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris H was only over the line again (is this the Helm of the Year?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aileen again took the victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Corrected time took a bit of working out, but Aileen was declared the winner of the May Day Pennant for 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Perhaps we should rename this the Comet Cup Race!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks to Peter Rose and the race team of Hadey Lines, Bill Coulter, Brian Moore and Stephen Morton.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last year there were three back-to-back races and 13 starters, but this year there were two races and only two starters!.
