With the promise of a lively breeze, a good turn of 11 boats was achieved. The race conditions were great with fairly constant pressure. Team Effort reminded us why he is on a scratch handicap, leaving all in his wake to take the gun. Incognito took the honours on corrected times.

Being the first morning after daylight saving kicked in (and, I suspect, the morning of a certain Rugby test match), a slightly smaller smaller fleet of 7 boats fronted. A bit of a delay until the breeze kicked in and then the light breeze splitting the fleet by the main channel to Mangroves. This turned out to be a rare race where scratch and handicap results were identical with Sarnia waiting until the last couple of hundred metres to take a 3 second win.

Raring to get back into it we started the season with a nice sized fleet of 8 Frostbites and 1 sunburst (single handed). Hopefully not a sign of the season to come with the fleet splitting into two. Half the fleet decided that the course setter was an idiot and sailed their own course. Or maybe they are trying to pad their handicap.

Welcome to 2018-2019 Season September 2018 and is warming up for a new season. Time to dust of the Frostbite, get a new WOF (yeah right!) and try and remember all those little things you were going to fix in the off-season. Too late now!

On a shocking day 7 boats braved torrential rain for the sake of a sail. Footprint showed the rocket she is in light winds to lead from start to finish. Need I say that it was Limeburner with the handicap honours. A learning moment was taken by Kitiri on the finer points of the port-starboard rule and the requirement for the 720 penalty turn!
