It was the last of the Cobley Series for this year and Dave L had the pleasure of overseeing the finale.<\/span><\/div>\n
With a NW wind of about 5-8 mph he set the first beat to X (roughly near 6) then 8, 4, 2, 5, 7 and back through the start.<\/span><\/div>\n

Pursuit Race<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
10 starters this morning and first back through the line was early starter Chris H (Comet) followed by Newton (Solo), Karen (Laser), Julian (Solo) and Jon (Laser). Then there was quite a gap back to Mark (Laser) who was just ahead of Dean & Nick (Vago).  Two minutes later Alistair (Laser) came through the line just in front of the last starter Adrian (single handed Vago) who had caught and passed Jeremy (Laser).<\/span><\/div>\n
At the gun Karen had come through to take the victory and the final positions were \u2013 <\/span><\/div>\n
1st<\/sup> Karen; 2nd<\/sup> Newton; 3rd<\/sup> Jon; 4th<\/sup> Chris H; 5th<\/sup> Julian; 6th<\/sup> Mark <\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
Handicap Race<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
Marcin (Laser) joined the fleet for the second race. In the light wind there was only time for two laps and at the end of the first lap Jon had a good lead over Karen in 2nd<\/sup> place with Dean & Nick 3rd<\/sup> just ahead of Newton. About 30 seconds later Mark came through the line with a gap back to Chris H and then Julian and Alistair crossed the line together. Jeremy was next with Adrian and Marcin about 30 seconds further back.<\/span><\/div>\n
By the end of the last lap Karen had taken the lead from Jon to give her a nice double on the day. Newton and Mark had both passed Dean & Nick to move up to 3rd<\/sup> and 4th<\/sup> places. The other movers on this lap were Julian up one place to 6th<\/sup> and Adrian up two places.<\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
The final positions on the water were \u2013<\/span><\/div>\n
1st<\/sup> Karen; 2nd<\/sup> Jon; 3rd<\/sup> Newton; 4th<\/sup> Mark; 5th<\/sup> Dean & Nick; 6th<\/sup> Julian<\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
On handicap the first three should retain their positions, but Chris H should move up to 4th <\/sup>with Mark 5th<\/sup> and Julian 6th<\/sup>.<\/span><\/div>\n
