IOM Mid Week Handicap

The forecast was spot on today, with light NW winds slowly strengthening during the morning for some close A rig sailing.

By our lunch break the breeze had increased to top of A rig.

The breeze moderated a little during lunch but then increased again to the point that sailing was called off after 8 races.

I thought Rod Marshalls new Red Ant Woodie sailed very well, so its good to see a reward for Rod’s efforts, with a first place for the day with 3 points, Second, was Rod Jackman on 6 points, with John Hall just two points further back in third.

Kyle turned up at lunch time and had his part built IOM “Night Hawk” with him. I must admit I was quite impressed and think it will be a competitive IOM at a very low build cost . If you want information about it, or a kit to build, contact Kyle
