Thanks for the score sheet and the photos Mike. The score sheet is a nice addition.
The Duck was at it’s variable best. Duck luck was evident, both good and bad, and it helped keep the fleet together. Very few runaway winners today. Lots of close finishes, and quite a few collisions in the gusts.
Ron dominated with some fountain time. The rest of us looked on in awe. Boats caught on the starting line buoy (twice) will not be mentioned.
Thank you to Mike and Phil for a great day of sailing.
Did anyone miss the heartless old bloke who used to use black sails?? I didn’t think so!!
Sounds like a ripper day at the Duck – sorry I was unable to join in. Thank you for your report Col. Now I am looking forward to the Frog’s view on what really happened!!
The Admiral does seem to be attracted to the buoys!
An interesting day of sailing well reported and recorded.
Great photos and videos Mike.
Kermit – interesting perspective on our future races – not sure that I want you as our future PRO!!!!
Great day of racing at the Duck with “Duck Luck” often the difference between a good or a not so good place. I had my share of the Luck today – next week it may be me on the fountain!!
Thanks to Phil for the smooth running of the races.
It seems the weather was not as bad as the forecasts suggested. Well done to those sailors who turned up. Not often that the A+ rig is too big at the Duck.
Thank you for the report and the photos.
I am used to seeing some coloured sails on the Duck pond. Mind you the timber IOM does add a bit of interest!!
