Always the same great rush of enthusiasm then the ennui sets in. |
Results up on the host clubs website, are they grand prix finishing as some results appear to have changed from day one. |

Genius!!!! |
Fresh off the press but a day old now I guess http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/?article=148205 |
no race held yesterday but 4 boats blag flagged for the race when it does get held as they tried to get a start off in no wind and strong tide with blag flag up and it was recalled. matt biggs one of them. launched today for 2 races in very fresh breeze - jacko reckoned he'd sell mast or two. fancy dress night was quite lively - wombles, wig wams, wasps, washing lines, willie wonka, willie the whale.. |
Is it not strange that in the linked report in Y&Y the coverage of social events appears before an overview of the racing? Has the main business of the week become subsidiary? http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/?article=148218 |
Just love the You Tube video. Classic music, takes me back to my youth and Vision On - THE GALLERY! |
The web cam tells a sorry story today with many retirements. Looks as if the Pirates, Monkey Business and Scroggie mobiles had wheels fall off today. Could not see where Glenn/Olly finished but looks as if Tricky Dicky/Sall came second in the last race today. Report will be in first thing in the morning. to confirm all |
Common Barnsie it's nearly lunchtime, where's the full report you promised??!! |
Looks like a showdown between Glen/Olly and Rich/Sally... http://www.bestchampseverever.com/index.php?q=node/61 |
Looks as if Taxi/Ellie won today followed by Tricky Dicky/Sally and then Glenn/Olly. That would mean that Glenn/Olly would win on most wins. |
Correction looks as if the Pirates were 3rd. Damn webcams!!! |
CONFIRMED. |
Well done to Glen and Olly. |
Well done Glen & Olly!! |
Congrats Guys, Looks like sticking with the Let It Rides finally paid off!! |
Where are the full results? |
Full results and final report has now gone in and should be posted very soon. 1330 22.08.2009 |
What happened to race four then? I noticed that half the fleet recorded a DNF. Was this just because it was run back to back? |
If you can understand it, here is the Y&Y report. http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/?article=148240 |
Final report. http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/?article=148259 |
Race 4 had so many DNFs because it was blowing force 6 |
