What a difference a week makes. After racing being cancelled last week due to the weather, this week you could be forgiven for thinking it was the middle of summer. We had three boats on the start line last Sunday under the starting orders of Mark Ivers RO for the day. Mark gave them a very fair course between No 8 and No 3 with a North west breeze. Ernie Dillon and Dominic Baxter’s new boat “Rioja” was out along with two boats from the navy college sailed by Conor Houghton and Andy Verso. after one hour and forty five minutes racing it was Conor Houghton on his J24 Jailbait that took both line honours and the win on corrected time from Rioja in second place. the prize giving was held in the club afterwords with Rebecca O’Connell (6) presenting the prizes to the fleet. Thanks for all that turned out to race and looking forward to seeing a few more next week on the start line.
