Quickfire DF65 racing at The Bus Stop today
Twelve eager skippers gunning for some thrilling racing lined up on a nice course set by Nigel 168. SW and steady breeze today. A windward beat, reach to a wing mark, a run, another reach, then back on the wind and two times round. Starting was keenly contested with the odd incident tossed in to add to the excitement. At the top mark, it was critical to approach on starboard as the wind shifts and traffic sets a lot of traps. The photos give an idea of the situation.
Great fast racing with some chop tossed in really got the skippers excited. Numerous happy winners as usual.
Three RTW's today, Nigel 168 won race 1, Pat 39 won race 2, and Rob 501 played a hunch on the last and unidirectional RTW to win handsomely.
Another cracking day at the lake.
Enjoy the photos.
