Sat 3 August

After a week of sunny weather, campers were all set up on Friday before the heavens opened! A good reason to meet up with old friends in the bar?

Racing for the weekend series started this afternoon. The sun stayed out again, perhaps boosting the turnout of 180 boats in 11 fleets. After light winds in the morning, the F3-4 breeze filled in nicely from the WSW offering great sailing conditions, and resulting in a few capsizes. As ever, there were numerous shifts for sailors to contend with!

A few boats were caught OCS by the one minute rule, and there was one general recall

The evening entertainment starts with the commodore’s reception followed by the first disco of the week.
