Six of us arrived on a beautiful summers morning with a light southerly blowing straight down the lake.
We laid a very straightforward course using the two blue mark as a gate at the north end ,a shorter course was used for Alans 12 year old grandson who was sailing a bottle boat.
The wind did increase a little throughout the day and although fluky at times stayed fairly constant in direction.
It was all very competative with every skipper winning at least one race.Simon Johnson was really on form and won the day,surprisingly he only got the one win but all his other finishing positions were seconds,so he had a convincing overall win.
Alan spent some of his time instructing Mathew his grandson which was obviosly working as Mathews sailing was improving rapidly throughout the day,and he thouroughly enjoyed it.
Not sure yet who has won the series overall but I am sure this will be anounced soon.
Next up for the DF’s is the August holiday races .Two races both to count on 14th and 28th with a big prize at stake for the overall winner.
