Greetings members.  The weather was beautiful, the sailing breeze was beautiful, the computer was beautiful, J 146 was beautiful, the cuppa was beautiful, the whole day was beautiful. What was not beautiful is that J 276 narrowly edged J 146 off t6he podium. Congratulations to Glen, Dayele and Ron for podium placings.

Our RO was Darryl Sutton ably assisted by Al Ross and they set a 2 lap triangle course with a mass start, and an adequate length start line. The only other comment I have time for is that for some elusive reason, the day was riddled with hails of ‘protest’ and numerous penalties taken.

Reminders; next Saturday, the duty officers are Tom Wilda and Nick Richardson. On Oct 1 it is Roy Bickerstaffe and Doug Parker. On Oct 8 it is Andy Allison and Rodney Ford.

Cheers Tom A
