A rainy day

Finally everyone drags themselves out of the club, changes into sailing gear and we get started rigging.

Five minutes to the start, it's wind 5 to 10 knots and rainy. Pop goes the gun and we're off with a very shifty beat to the top mark. Round the top mark and Meridians enjoying the rising lake levels. They're off with The 'Weapon close behind they have a target lock on Meridian with the Monatana bakery boys in 3rd (as they decided to to a difference course to the other boats) and the subwoofer in 4th round the bottom mark.

By this time the breeze was getting up nicely with The 'Weapons in the lead, then Merdian, Montana and Subwoofer, last time round the top and Meridian has found the power to get in front again, but not for long cos after rounding the bottom mark they decided "well some one's got to fill the clanger" so they went for a swim.

Through the finish line goes

1st Chemical weapon
2nd Merdian energy
3rd Subwoofer
4th Monatana Bakery

Well that rounds off another Saturday of high performance skiff racing at Naval Point Club see ya next weekend at the open day.
