The forecast for the day was variable 10 knots - so I guess we were lucky that we got a SE-E breeze even though it was quite flukey. I was on starter duty so got a good view of the racing which was interesting.
It was great to see Amelia starting and completing her first race as a skipper on her Laser - and we also had three MJs join in the fun.
Two boats were over at the start - shows how competitive everyone is. Mainiac showed some good speed and led round the first mark followed closely by Truck, The Ribwich, Pleasure & Pain and Blowflies. Truck got through at the wing mark to lead at the end of the first lap followed by Mainiac, Pleasure & Pain, Blowflies and The Ribwich. Mainiac then went the wrong way up the work and lost out badly. Pleasure & Pain started catching Truck but didn't quite get there by the finish. Blowflies was next followed by Mainiac and The Ribwich.
In the MJs the fleet were a little spread out with Red Devils finishing in front of Cruise Missile and 2750.
The pointscore results were very close with Blowflies first, Mainiac second and Pleasure & Pain third. about 5 minutes covered the whole fleet.
