Another very nice late summer day with temperatures in the low seventies and a gentle breeze from the southwest tempted eight members to bring boats to the cove.

Judy looked after starting and scoring once again. Thank you, Judy.

Bill Raposa, Wes, and Wilkie also paid visits and Connie was there to support Al.

The wind was up to its usual tricks and varied in strength and direction but at least we kept to the same course. The start/finish line was formed by the drone buoy and the orange/blue mark. Head south from there and round the green/white and orange/white marks, then head north to the blue mark and back to the line. All marks were taken to port. We held six races and from race five the start line was changed by replacing the drone buoy with the yellow/red mark and we raced the same course twice around.

We had some close racing, which resulted in four different winners, but John won three races and with a second and third was easily today’s champion.

The other race winners were Greg, Paul and Rob. Rob also had two second places and one third place to finish second overall

While Bill David didn’t have a win today, he was second in two very close races and third in another two races, enough to clinch third this morning

Another day of racing for fun. very enjoyable.

Don’t forget you can see all the results and other news on our website mhbmyc.org
