RYS “TRY SAILING” DAY REPORT
We had a fantastic turn out and weather for the first “Try Sailing” day of the RYS season, with over 25 new sailors giving sailing a go for the first time. I think a fun time was had by all.
NEXT WEEK AT RYS
Next week are holding the RYS annual “Sail Past” on the 25th of October from 10am. The location we are sailing past is yet to be determined and will depend on wind conditions. This will be followed by Race 2 of Series 1 in the afternoon from 2pm.
RACE REPORT – SERIES 1 – RACE 1
We managed to fit 2 races in light conditions with the wind almost dying out in the second race. Race one saw Sonya destroy the field, leading from the first leg to hold a strong 3 minute win margin at the end. Race two finished with only 5 yachts after the wind almost completely died out, and with some sailors abandoning the race with water fights and capsize practice. The Lasers held their own with first place held by Richard and second by Patrick. All in all a great start to the sailing season.
