Boat's polished, sails in car, what's the forecast?
Posted: 15/04/2005 13:28:17 By: Dead Keen |
From what I can see, maybe 3-5 knots E or SE increasing slightly in the afternoon maybe 10 knots by tea time.
No better, infact slightly worse for Cookham, where I'm going, at least I have never known a river race to be cancelled due to lack of wind :-)
Posted: 15/04/2005 14:24:24 By: Not Going This Time |
Weather looks good for sunday. No problem with sunburn or hayfever.
But there will be wind; 14 mph forecast from the the south (not much good comes from the south thats true, but it has a warm heart)
Posted: 16/04/2005 10:46:06 By: No wind up |
Hi,
Thanks to all at Shustoke who made a great day out.

I will try and get them done tonight. as for pic's, Pass there were people taking them, there was even a video cam around, I will try and investigate for you.
Posted: 25/04/2005 13:05:55 By: DaveF |
Dave, I think there aren't any separate rules for the Midland Circuit - results are calculated the same way as for Silver Tiller
Posted: 25/04/2005 22:57:30 By: Mike Anslow |
Yes thats Right, But some clubs don't follow thoes rules and I have to check this before publishing in the series results.
Here you go.

What happened to Armed Forces boys?
Posted: 26/04/2005 10:10:59 By: Jon |
Spinnaker halyard broke halfway throught he second race and on rolling the boat to sew it up we discovered a 6 inch long split down the front edge of the centreboard from hitting a submerged buoy at Midland a few weeks previously - not fast!!
The gods weer not with us and having taped the board and sewn the halyard up one of the pole uphauls refused point blank to allow itself to be untied from the d ring and we didn't make the 3rd start.
Hopefully thats a good share of this years bad luck out of the way!!
Posted: 26/04/2005 10:54:15 By: Chris |
Thanks Dave.
