Tales 18th March, 2006
Eight local yachts plus Colac sailor Paul Davies
in his RL24 Street Car contested
this week’s heat of the Post Xmas Series. Officers
of the day Matt and Gary set a long course in anticipation
of the wind strengthening. Unfortunately it didn’t.
With only a 5 knot SSE wind prevailing the course
needed to be shortened to one triangle and a windward
return.
Colin and Doug on Miss Molly sailed a faultless race
to take out handicap honours. Peter Deppeler on his
Farr 38 was again unbeatable on yardstick. The forever-late
Jeffers and son Angus sailing the Fireball, You Good
Thing gave the fleet an eight minute head start and
never worried the leaders. Line honours went to Dave
Merry on his Cat. Not a bad effort considering he
sailed the high-performance boat single-handedly.
Handicap Results :
1st Miss Molly Colin Coleman & Doug Williams
2nd Interlude John Marriner & Crew
3rd Tumbleweed Bill Gross & cast of thousands
4th Jubilation Peter Deppeler & Crew
