Wednesday saw five boats out and again the conditions were near perfect. The wind
was a little light in the harbour but we could see a better wind in the bay. The course was
Welbury to Stb. U62 to Stb. and home. ELECTRA took an early lead and retained it to
take line honors. ALACRITY and WESTWIND enjoyed some close racing outward but
ALACRITY was able to get away on the downwind return and was close to catching
ELECTRA at the finish. FINAL DASH had the misfortune to foul CAT DANCER at the start
and had to make a 720 in the light airs that prevailed at the start. In a short race this was
too much to recover but the finish time indicates a very serious endeavor.
Results 30th June. Time on time
