The New Season Starts !!

The new season started on Saturday and good number of competitors and spectators turned up at the Club in the bright weather for it. OODs Howard and Rob set some good courses to test everybody after the long Winter layoff, however an open window did cause the Toppers some confusion which was quickly rectified once realised !

The sunny, but gusty, conditions did lead to some brave souls testing the water temperature but whether that was due to the wind or they were just being been keen and wanting to check the buoyancy of their boats for the new season I’m not sure ?

Sunday was equally bright but much windier with white caps on the waves. The keen ones turned up and milled around a bit but no one was eager to make the first move and get their boats ready ! In view of the conditions and due to the lack of enthusiasm Clive, the OOD, waited until he was sure no one was going to race and then cancelled the races. The potential sailors didn’t seem too disappointed !!!!!!


Let’s hope for better conditions next weekend.
