Standing room only today at The Bus Stop.
Sixteen very keen skippers on the bank today, plus some excitable spectators. Nigel 168 set a gated course to cater for the south wind that was swinging SE. The starts were very keen with a few skippers being called back for being early.
The gate gave options and it was interesting to see the bunch going one way then the other. I notice a couple of cagey skippers working the same side time after time, and with some success.
Sadly we had the loss of a boat today when 909 sank to DJ's Locker, RIP 909. The report is not in yet, so we are all guessing what may have happened. The Black Box was not able to be recovered.
On a happier note, Nigel 168 had a pretty average day until it was time for the RTW's of which there were two. He put in two blinding races to win them both by good margins - nice sailing Nigel.
Enjoy the photos
Pete 197 today.
