Official racing was cancelled on Sunday due to the lake being frozen, that didn’t stop several members heading out for the unofficial “Will’s Cup” once the lake had <\/a>started to thaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 boats made it to the start line, with Hugh (ILCA7) taking an early lead, he was closely followed by Rhys (ILCA6), with Chris H (Comet) 3rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aileen (Comet) caught up and overtook Chris, both of whom were trading places for the rest of the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hugh crossed the line 1st, with Rhys 2nd and Chris H 3rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Handicap, Rhys & Chris H were joint winners, with Aileen 3rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the start of the second race, Rhys was over the line with less than a minute to go, not noticing the display Z flag. This meant he had a 20% penalty added to his time and was in no biased against the fact his sibling was on the OOD team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hugh got away with an early lead, closely followed by Aileen. Rhys, having completed penalty turns, had his work cut out chasing Aileen, eventually passing her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hugh crossed the line 1st, with Rhys 2nd and Aileen 3rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Handicap, Hugh finished 1st, with Aileen 2nd & Kate 3rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, Hugh wins Will’s Cup, Aileen was 2nd and Rhys 3rd<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big thank you to both Wills & the rest of the OOD team for running the racing on Sunday, and to Newton & Steve for providing coaching to the less experienced members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re back on Sunday for the next rounds of the Frostbite Series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
