DF65's at The Bus Stop.

The afternoon started very light from the north and lifted as the afternoon moved on.

Nine boats today with very keen skippers sailing well.

As with Monday the light shifty breeze opened up opportunities and some big winning margins resulted.

Good behavior was a feature today with a few rule reminders heard.

A new launching crane was developed and trialed today to get around the low water level.

A masterly piece of design from Nigel that worked well and it was a popular item of kit.

Garry and Pete swapped boats and agreed it was nice to sail someone else's boat just to gauge the setup and see how they feel. Ask Garry what he thought of the old Dragon Boat.

I liked Garry's setup and found 54 a little more responsive on the helm.

Another cracker afternoon enjoying sailing and the company of good yachty blokes.
