RACE REPORT 5 AUGUST 2023

Sprint Racing

Another day of light winds, as the morning breeze died off. Undeterred, the race committee set up a course just outside Double Bay and got off a quite a few short windward-leeward races. After moving the marks around to try to match the breeze direction, the RIB crew eventually gave up and just let the racecourse be what it was, and this did not at all dampen the enthusiasm of the sailors.

Julian Taylor provided a clinic on how to get a Laser around a racecourse in zero wind using kinetics alone!

Thanks to the on-water team of Mike Dunne (PRO), John Vasey (RO), Chris Tattersall & Grant Lovelady (COTD’s).
