What a great day, 12 boats on the water at
some time during the day.
Welcome Uncle Mick & Karen Kenny, who
are made a spectacular entry to their warm up for the World’s Grand Masters.
However it’s not good to have two blind people on one boat. It was noticed they
headed off to the hazard marker off Plantation Point. Mick did say that the
reach back was the best sail of the day! From their second race came the
question why do the battens keep getting caught when tacking, the wind was a
bit light!
Glad to see our new 18 member Daryl &
Chloe out there, disappointing to hear the deck needs some repairs. See you
back after Forster ready to give the other 18”s a run for their money.
Congratulations to Will’s new crew Ben who
had his first experience of racing on Jervis Bay, the skipper was pleased with
your performance. It must be also noted they had Mick Butler ‘s old but still
new boat. Their place of 3rd and 6th is a credit to you both. Patrick you
better watch out or you may lose the honor of number 1 crew.
Dobbo & Helen did let Rowen & Rowie
beat them in the first race, what a gentle man you are Dobbo!
Sorry, Egbert’s first day back sailing
after dropping his mast last season was not great. The new rigging needs some
adjustment is the rumor going around.
Quinnie made it out for second race, which
is good for the 18” fleet. Unfortunately the wind dropped. For Dobbo &
Uncle Mick they both made great improvements in the second race..
Oh yes Scott had a gun crew of Ellie and
Banjo, who seemed to enjoy the conditions. Which is pleasing for the young
girls.
Look out for Jeremy and Rana especially
Jeremy as he is the skipper at the top mark, he has been known to mark other
boats. But be aware Jeremy changes sails to be inconspicuous.
They was another two stand outs on the day,
Dianne & Howard, went out one up. Howard only for a jolly, but Dianne to do
well with the above mentioned sticky Jib It is also noted you were a little
under weight De.
Thanks to Kerry for kitchen duty and Graham
with Paul on start boat duty. All had an early day.
