** points for 10th April not included - in Carlsberg records
Saturday 24th April
A beautiful spring day, one could almost say summer's day with the wind in the west with a little north in it. The last day of the series. Four boats started the race but sadly the race had to be abandoned because the wind died away altogether and two of the crews had to walk in along the shore.
Saturday 17th April
No OOD so the boats had to time themselves nevertheless a good day's racing.
Saturday 10th April was the first day of The Carlsberg Trophy.
The first race, three laps, was over the course - 'D' to starboard, 'E' to starboard, 'B' to port, 'H' to starboard. All boats started well except Nick who was over the line again! Mark and Paul were missing but Bill Crichton was out for the first time and Ivan joined the fleet, inspired by his stint at helping Penny Forum yesterday. Nick was crewed by his daughter Ruth. The race was long and challenging, helped by the additional hazard of the freighter.
The second race had to be shorter due to the length of the first one and was again three laps but over the course - 'B' to starboard, 'F' to starboard, 'A' to port, 'H' to starboard. Nick making sure he wasn't over the line for the fourth successive time, hung back and was left at the start, and they never recovered. Some nifty manoeuvring by Bill and Roger brought them home first, also winning on handicap. After handicap there was only 32 seconds between the first and last boats, a very close run race.
Saturday 27th March
The wind was force 2-3 and the same course was used for both races, the tide making them both different. B to starboard, E to starboard, F to starboard, A to port and H to starboard. Ivan Haslam was OOD.
Saturday 20th March
Too windy, very windy
