Long Distance

​A pleasant day’s sailing for all sailors.
 
Started the day with IOM’s on A rigs, but by the fourth race, the wind came in and we took an early lunch to change to B rigs. We also had two A Class yachts sailing today, with John and Rod doing a tune up for next week’s A Class State Championship.
 
Great to see the Peter’s here today (Sylvester and Darcey), both with their V10’s sailing well.
 
Ray Joyce had an ultra-consistent day, with only 1’s and 2’s counting, giving him the win with just 14 points from the 12 races.
 
Rod Marshall came in second with his Venom A Class, on 30 points
 
Peter Sylvester came in third, on 38 points. Good to see Peter and his V10 communicating with each other a bit better as the day progressed.
 
Interestingly, just 6 points covered 3rd to 7th place today, indicating the closeness of the day’s sailing.
