Another good day with winds - 13 races!  Malcom had excellent speed today and was pushing all the time.  It was great to see Colin for a few minutes Wednesday - our best wishes are with him.

Well at last the days of consistent winds finally gave way to a more normal drifter interspersed with a few gusts - what a pity.  Still 9 races wasn't bad considering.  The jive does seem to like these conditions tho and Ben did well all day helped along by David having winch troubles early.

Wow!! how close was this day?  Congratulations to Adrian for his first win.  And another great day with heaps of wind allowing 14 races.  The handicap system again allowed all to be competitive with 9 skippers winning at least one race.  While not recorded, the one metre that Phillip L trialled today showed excellent speed and easily matched it with the Marbleheads in the lighter winds.  Looks a winner  Phillip!  We now have three members with one metre yachts - maybe we need to think about including these in some of the special days we have held in the past where other types of yachts are allowed.

Any day we can sail 13 races means there was wind!  Some really close racing was evident today often with 5 yachts rounding the last mark with race to the line.  Promising signs were also seen from our newest sailors Adrian and Ian who both had some good results during the day.
