What was the shining thing in the sky? Yes the sun was shining! The wind picked up to a nice force 3. Ian was the S.O.O.D. The start was from the shore to the outer distance marker and had a heavy port bias. Who was going to risk it? Hugh was the first boat to start. He was determined to stretch his lead as much as possible. The S.O.O.D. was relieved when the lasers were under way. Mark started from the port end and had a good start in his new boat. Monica was the first casualty in her Europe. Her tiller extension connection was starting to break up. She thought she had better retire before disaster! <\/p>\n

One hour into the race and the sailors were starting to feel tired. Mistakes were starting to occur. First one for an early bath was Peter in his new laser!  Buoy number 4 wasn’t going to take any prisoners, Peter in his Enterprise was starting to struggle. He got a strong gust and it hit his boat just at the wrong moment and he was sent into the water together with Curtis! <\/p>\n

Four boats were fighting for third place, at one point they were hitting each other like battling tops! Richard came off the loser!  
 
 
Final positions were. 1st. Chris. 2nd. Mark. 3rd. Dave.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
