DF95 Monthly Mid Week Handicap

​What a great days sailing today in warm & sunny conditions. A solid fleet of 10 boats turned up although Buzzy B had a receiver problem so spent the morning socialising. 
 
Light winds greeted the scratch racing before the sea breeze started to assert & strengthen after lunch giving some great sailing in upper A rig conditions. 
Our PRO today was Rod Marshall who conducted racing in a firm & efficient manner so many thanks to Rod.
 
Very good to see Richard Barwick celebrate his 50th birthday with us. Kim Potter won four races, a deserved first place for him this month.
Justin Rogers was also having a good day with 2 wins - he is definitely on the march forward in the fleet. Well done on your second place for the day.
With PRO duties handed across for the day, Andrew Wardrop was able to sail for the day, and was well rewarded with third place for the day
Mike Hickman was the handicap back marker & showed his usual mastery of the dam despite his tough handicap.
 
Thanks also to Phil for collecting & returning the dinghy. Dam level is still dropping but we will stay with it & see how the level stands at the end of the month.
