After having to cancel the first two races of this series due to lack of entries it was good to finally get things going again.
This time we had six skippers and with some of the regulars on holiday hopefully in the weeks to come the numbers will increase.
Alan and myself got to the lake early to be greeted with a distinct lack of wind, anyway we set a straightforward windward leeward course from the south bank ready for the forecast westerly breeze that was supposed to arrive.
Sadly there was hardly any breeze all day but we did manage to sail five races in the revised sailing time of 11am to 2pm which seems to suit everybody.
As is often the case with the DF fleet there were four different race winners so not bad from six skippers from five races. At some stage we were all affected by weed but it could have been worse so hopefully things will improve as the water temperature goes down, next time out for this class is 23rd October.
