In lively conditions on Saturday, our Commodore arranged a schedule of three Olympic style courses off the pier at Rathmullan, and tested the fleet on spinnaker handling skills, finding some in need of the practice! The racing was very close, with the first three boats in Class Two finishing with equal points overall. The result was settled by an ISAF tie-break, and three seconds split the winners.

The White Harte hosted the prize-giving with music and a hearty buffet enjoyed by everyone there.

Thanks to Kevin McAteer in the White Harte for the hospitality and to Paul Hasson as our OD for a great day’s sailing.

Results:
CLUB Class
1st Seventh Heaven
2nd Tempo
3rd Boomerang

All results to date for events and series races are available on the 2011 Race Results page on the club web site www.loughswillyyc.com

The clubhouse is to have a trophy display cabinet, and all our major silver will be displayed in the cabinet for everyone to admire 🙂

Would all members who currently have race trophies at home please bring them along to Paul McSorley, Sailing Secretary, who will arrange to have them engraved and put on display.

Thank you!
