OOD: Mary Short. Safety Boat: Sam Shemtob and Andy Ross
Start : 16:10. Fine, gusty,
Three boats sailing: Distant Thunder ( Leader) with Chris Greenwood and Lev Kolobov; Zephyr (Enterprise) with James Armitage and daughter Ruth; and Ellie (Laser) with Patrick Lane-Spollen. James spent time helping Dave Berger to rig Big Polly but only succeeded in being late for the start: Dave and Sheila had to give up the attempt.
So Distant Thunder led all the way over 8 laps of frisky sailing, and Patrick had a challenging time learning the ways of a Laser.
