<\/div>\n
This was a really windy day (about15 mph from the West) for the last race of the Spring Series. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Adrian (SOOD) put in No 1 as the first mark giving people the option of going through the inside of the island, before going up to 5P,then 3P, 8P, 6S, 7S.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There were only 12 starters including the two Toppers of brothers William and Rhys. Karen and Steve S opted for radial rigs, but the other Lasers went with the full sail.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
William was first back round with Hadey (4.7) 2nd<\/sup>  <\/span>and Newton & Ellen (Laser 2000) 3rd<\/sup>. Steve S had just got Past Rhys to come through in 4th<\/sup> with the Lasers of David C, Jon, Karen, Dave L and Richard S occupying the 7th<\/sup> to 10th<\/sup> places. Last starter Ian C (Supernova) was 11th<\/sup> and Alistair S (Laser)12th<\/sup>.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
By the end of the second lap Newton & Ellen had taken the lead and kept it right to the finish. Steve S had moved up to 2nd<\/sup> with Hadey 3rd<\/sup>, David C 4th<\/sup>, Jon 5th<\/sup> and William 6th<\/sup>.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The third lap saw David C move up to 2nd<\/sup> and Jon to 3rd<\/sup>. The other movers were Ian up to 6th<\/sup>, Karen up to 7th<\/sup>, and Richard and Dave to 8th<\/sup> and 9th<\/sup>.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
 <\/span>The first three boats maintained position on the fourth lap, but Ian moved up to 4th<\/sup> and Karen to 5th<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Just before the gun Ian took a gamble and went inside the island in an attempt to get past Jon, and was deemed by the SOOD to be nearer to 1 and the finish so snatched 3rd<\/sup> place. Everyone else maintained position.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The final positions were 1st<\/sup> Newton & Ellen; 2nd<\/sup> David C; 3rd<\/sup> Ian C.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Thanks to Adrian and the OOD Team of Sylvia and James P (there must have been other members of the team but they did not write their names on the race sheet \u2013 but thanks to them anyway)<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The overall series winner was David C with 2nd<\/sup> Newton & Ellen and 3rd<\/sup> Jon.<\/span><\/div>\n
