A smaller turnout at The Bus Stop

Eight boats today and the SW'er was up. Early in the afternoon it was bordering on B Rig, so skippers had to use all their skill to keep control.

Lester 17 was on fire early on and was the one to beat. Pat 39 took over after Lester left and showed his stern to the small fleet. Exciting stuff while the breeze stayed in. As the session progressed, the sting went out of the breeze leaving a nasty chop.

John 235 unfortunately broke his jib strop in the heavy weather and had to withdraw for the afternoon. Trevor 22 found the going too tough so had a pleasant afternoon watching the action.

Three keenly contested RTW's today, Pat 39 won the first one and Nigel 168 won the others. Nice work boys.

Enjoy the photos
