IOM Mid Week Handicap

​Fifteen IOM skippers enjoyed a day of excellent racing in superb A rig conditions today with a moderate northerly.

A mixture of long and short races saw 10 races achieved including a bonus scratch race at the end, which was won by the ever consistent Ray who's Brit pop was displaying its usual excellent boat speed.

PRO duties were carried out by a different skipper each race, who will get average points for the race missed.

Two wins today to Chris Wood and Rod Marshall, who were both sailing well.

Overall winner today though, was Ray Joyce, on 11.63pts. Chris Wood followed in second, on 17.25pts wit Peter Sylvester taking out third, on 21.13pts.

Next Wednesday is DF95 racing which will probably be held at the dam - that will be confirmed early next week.

In the meantime, have a good Easter & don't go too heavy on the chocolate. 

For those that feel they'd like a sail over the Easter break, a few sailors ahev expressed interest in having a social sail on Monday. Looking at winds and tides, it looks like a 1pm sail would be the best time on the day. If you are interested in having a sail, please contact me and after I get 5 interested sailors, I'll put out an email to confirm. Needing 5 to get the rescue dinghy in and out etc.
