IOM_Friday 17th June_'22

julyanrichardson

Six Skippers sailed their One Metre class yachts today for this, the seventh event

of the current series. As the heat of the day increase, so through the morning did

a steady breeze: keeping the crew cool, and the racing close.


The course: #1 - Black and orange(OB) Start, #8 to Starboard, 5 to port, #6 port,

#7 port, #8 Stbd, 'OB' port, Zero port, #8 stbd, #6 port, #7 port, #8 Stbd, 'OB' port,

#1 port, Finish #5 - #8.


Each competitor took at least one turn in overseeing the start, making it a little tricky to

both get a good position and to see that the fleet are behind the start-transit-line until the

countdown has ended.


Today's tidy trio are: 1st Place - JB #80, 2nd - RH #03, and 3rd - SB #73
