Results: Pursuit Series A Race 2 (Sat 15th May)

Sailing Secretary • 16 May 2021

A healthy nine competitors on a windy Saturday afternoon.

The wind was SSE forecast to move SE so the course was set in the North Lake as 17P 9P 8P 11P 8P 13P 7P Repeat. The lead boat (Magic Touch) was heading down to 13 I believe at the end of the race.


The wind moved a lot more Easterly than forecast initially (it was actually ENE for a while) then returned to forecast. It would be churlish to suggest this benefited the early starters ;-)


Congratulations to Magic Touch who were pleased to return to winning form. Great to see Firefly's first outing with her new owners. The first race of the season too for Pipistrelle despite a crew mutiny.


A gentle reminder to please carry VHF, especially for pursuit races - it makes getting the results much easier.

Standing after two races: -

The skipper and crew of the boat this photograph was taken from would like to point out that it had not been lapped!

A good turnout on a fine day gave close racing with occasionally challenging conditions for short handed crews. Pura Vida looked ahead on the water but corrected times show a different picture with Seventh Heaven taking Race 2 and the fleet close together for both races. Nevertheless, Pura Vida held on to pip Seventh Heaven to this year's September Cup.
