IOM Mid Week Handicap

A chilly start today with 12 IOM’s sailing in mid to upper A rig conditions with a fairly steady NW breeze.

Our course was 3/4 to 8/7 to 5/6 to 8/7 to gate & 3/4 finish. A very good mix of results so we shall see who came out on top. A few skippers lost attention and ended up in the weed with resulted in a difficult rescue. PRO duties were varied so thanks to those who helped.

The contents of Kyle’s email re the weed removal at the dam was discussed, and at this stage the fleet will sail next Wednesday & then we will in all probability move to Montrose ( particularly if the pontoon is in ) but will review again next Wednesday.

Bragging rights today went to Rob Cooney, narrowly edging out Paul jewel, with Stuart Harris rounding up the top three.

A good days sailing.
