IOM State Championship - Day 1

29/11/2025

0 Comments

 
​An interesting day today for day 1 of the Tasmanian IOM State Championship. Wind direction from everywhere but the north during the day, and from nothing all the way to about 14 knots. Just as you consdiered changing to B Rig, the wind died off.

A difficult one for PRO John Hall with course setting, but he did a wonderful job all day, and there was no fuss from competitors with the course changes or the delay just prior to the sea breeze coming in. Always best to sit it out when the wind has no idea what it wants to do.

A very healtthy fleet of 17 sailors, with 9 in "Silver Fleet" which is very encouraging to see. For those not aware, Silver Fleet came about so the ones that are not quite at the pointy end of the field can also have something to chase down to win amongst other sailors with similar mixes of skill and boat setup. It is great to see some new sailors competing as well. I am sure you will come out of the champs with a lot of knowledge gained and friendships solidified. Also fantastic to see some of the more experienced sailors giving a hand to the less experienced when on land with boat setups.

Also great to see 8 race winners in the 15 races run so far.

At the half way stage, we have got a real contest at the top with Lisa Blackwood the clubhouse leader on 47 points, and Gary McCarthy just one behind in second on 48.

Third to 5th is also very tight with just one point separating Stuart Dawes (66pts), Kyle Stewart (66pts) and John Cole-Cook (67pts).

In Silver Fleet, Ian Dickinson has a comfortable lead with 32 points, from Peter Sylvester (39pys) and Andrew Wardrop in 3rd (43pts)

Sailing resumes tomorrow at 1030 for the conclusion of the Championship. we will have the gate open from 0930

Tristan Price was on site today and has taken some fantastic shots of the sailing. He has posted to the RC Sailing Tasmania FB Group, which can also be seen if you do not have a FB account. Big thanks to Tristan for providing some photos from the day's sailing.
