If you don't like the wind, wait 30 minutes.
The wind was different in every race of the 5 race
series. First race, wind from the East 5kts. 2nd
race wind from the South 5 kts, 3rd race wind from
the SW double trapezing, and so on.
Getting consistent finishes was
pretty tough, I
couldn't manage it. I
came first in one, third in
another but being next to the
tail end, in a "no
drops" series, doesn't cut it.
Rex, racing "Waling Flowers" and Nestor, racing "Suunto", managed it. Rex, in fact, barely edged Nestor out, by just half a point. Interestingly, he never won a single race, he merely stayed in the top 25% of the fleet.
Art and Charlie's "Team Techno Marine" placed Third.
Congratulations to Monchu for winning his first race.
We got 9 boats out racing. Good
fun.
Pictures:
"just as the wind comes up, 9 minutes to start...and
that Topper is capsized on the starting line!"
- yeah, and we're still on the beach- but thats not unusual.
Boats going out for race 3.

Renies 1st Hobie 16 race. Nice job of fixing
