It was a rather chilly, but sunny start to the morning with a light breeze. By the race start time it was warmer and a very pleasant time for sailing so it was disappointing that only four members turned up today. Bill Raposa won 3 races and had 2 second places to top the short listing today. Well sailed, Bill.

The other Bill, Bill David, was second with 2 wins, 1 second, and 2 thirds.

Kim was equal on points with Bill, but Bill took the place by virtue of 2 wins against Kim’s one.

Kim had 3 second places and two thirds, one of which was his throwout.

My boat only finished one race before it got rather wet inside. Bill David had a problem and didn’t finish the last of the six races as his sail servo suffered severe stress!

Surviving it all was Bill’s wife, Judy who did her usual perfect job of starting and scoring. Many thanks, Judy.
